Daryn Sharp commented on HADOOP-8551:
-------------------------------------
If it's too much of a problem to s/mkdir /mkdir -p /, rather than reverting I'd
suggest a config option (I know, I know) that in generally can be used to
enable/disable deprecated behavior in the shell.
> fs -mkdir creates parent directories without the -p option
