---------------------------------
Thanks for the +1 for branch-0.20-security, Owen, I'll cherry-pick the change
and run some test.

> HADOOP-6498 moved the calls.remove() call lower into the SUCCESS clause of
> receiveResponse(), but didn't put a similar calls.remove into the ERROR
> clause. So, any RPC call that throws an exception ends up orphaning the Call
> object in the connection's "calls" hashtable. This prevents cleanup of the
> connection and is a memory leak for the call parameters.
