Description

When trying to display a loaded table in the catalog web UI, I get an IllegalStateException.
To repro:

impala-shell> refresh default.<tbl>;
Point your browser to: localhost:25020/catalog_object?object_type=TABLE&object_name=default.<tbl>

The error is:

IllegalStateException: Table.toThrift() called without holding the table lock:..

Here is the full stacktrace:

I0303 11:39:12.302106 25263 jni-util.cc:169] java.lang.IllegalStateException: Table.toThrift() called without holding the table

Alex, I believe this may be related to the fix for IMPALA-4998. If not, you may assign it back to me.
