> Ensure access to the `filesLoader` field of `BasicDirectoryModel` is synchronized.
>
> Without synchronization, a thread checks if `filesLoader` is not null and creates a new `FilesLoader` thread. If the thread is pre-empted between these two operations, another thread or even several threads can see the `null` value and create new `FilesLoader` threads.
>
> The same way, `BasicDirectoryModel.invalidateFileCache` needs to be synchornized to interrupt the current `filesLoader` and assign `null`.
>
> This bug allows reproducing `ConcurrentModificationException` seen in [JDK-8323670](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8323670) and [JDK-8307091](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8307091) using the test in PR #18109.
Alexey Ivanov has updated the pull request incrementally with four additional commits since the last revision:
- Replace synchronized invalidateFileCache with synchronized block inside
- Declare DoChangeContents constructor private, wrap its parameters
- Space after synchronized in DoChangeContents.run
- Convert runnable to local variable
