It's possible that we wanted to resize to a smaller size but we didn't
have enough memory to create the new table. We need to test for that
here so we don't try to lock twice and dead lock. Also we free the
"oldkeymap" on that path and that would be bad.

I don't know this code very well. Maybe we should just take the lock
earlier in the function for the resize case and the non resize case.
Can we add new keys while the resize is taking place?
