Yongjun Zhang commented on HADOOP-12718:
----------------------------------------
I saw quite a lot places refer to the string "Permission denied", which large
mean the same thing referred to in the case here. We can replace the other
places that refer to "Permission denied" with the constant defined in the patch
here gradually when appropriate.

Please note test testPutSrcFileNoPerm should not use the constant

I think we could actually use the constant in the above test now, but I'm ok to
defer it when doing replacement in the source code that produce the message.
Thanks.
