This can't be tested because there are currently no cases that would fail the test without the change. It is there as a preventative double-lock measure to make sure any future code changes do not introduce an infinite loop. It's a slight unoptimization, as it adds what should be a redundant runtime check, but at miniscule performance cost versus the value of preventing a waste of CPU power and memory in the case that something goes wrong.
