Description:
When executing `CREATE INDEX` with a high value for `--innodb_parallel_read_threads` like 32, the entire disk space is filled up. Once the disk space is exhausted, the command fails and disk usage is back to normal.

How to repeat:
It can be reproduced by running an MTR using:
```
mtr innodb.ddl_large_record --mysqld=--innodb_parallel_read_threads=32
```

A possible workaround is to reduce `--innodb_parallel_read_threads` or increase `--innodb_ddl_buffer_size`.

Thank you for the report and for the test case.
