We see this on 0.10.1. ~20-30 errors per day on every broker

> We recently observed the following error in brokers running 0.9.0.1:
> A client saw an Unkown error code in response to an offset request for TOPICX, partition 0
> The server logs look like:
> {code}
> [2016-09-21 21:26:07,143] INFO Scheduling log segment 527235760 for log TOPICX-0 for deletion. (kafka.log.Log)

> I suspect a race condition between {{Log.deleteSegment}} (which takes a lock on the log) and {{KafkaApis.fetchOffsetsBefore}}, which does not take any lock. In particular, line 513 in KafkaApis looks like:
> {code:title=KafkaApis.scala|borderStyle=solid}
> 510  private def fetchOffsetsBefore(log: Log, timestamp: Long, maxNumOffsets: Int): Seq[Long] = {
> 511    val segsArray = log.logSegments.toArray
> 512    var offsetTimeArray: Array[(Long, Long)] = null
> 513    val lastSegmentHasSize = segsArray.last.size > 0;
> {code}
