This looks like the same harmless warning that we suppressed for
parallel sort in Postgres 11 (see commits 9fafa413ac6 and
de6428afe13). This happens to be a serial sort in Postgres 10, but the
fact that it's still possible there isn't surprising.
What's your work_mem setting? Can you show EXPLAIN ANALYZE output for the query?
