Review request for hadoop-common and Todd Lipcon.


Changes
-------

Throw exceptions (getting rid of nulls). Add appropriate javadocs and fix one 
checkstyle nit.


Summary
-------

Since getSerialization() can possibly return a null, it is only right that 
getSerializer() and getDeserializer() usage functions do the same, instead of 
throwing up NPEs.

Related issue to which this improvement is required: 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-2584


This addresses bug HADOOP-7328.
    http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7328


Diffs (updated)
-----

  src/java/org/apache/hadoop/io/serializer/SerializationFactory.java dee314a 

Diff: https://reviews.apache.org/r/884/diff


Testing
-------

Existing SequenceFile serialization factory tests pass. The change is merely to 
make the functions return null instead of throwing an NPE within.


Thanks,

Harsh
