Review comment:
       I know that the current data notification from downstream side is not 
very accurate which might cause return `null` buffer sometimes, but we can make 
the channel state notification accurate (actually it is the ground truth now). 
Then another truth is that the channel state consumption should always happen 
before downstream consumption, so it should be no problem here. 
   
   As long as `getNextBuffer` is triggered by channel state buffer, it can 
always get accurate buffer. Otherwise if it is triggered by downstream side 
notification, then it also confirms that the channel state recovery should 
already finish before.
