-------------------------------------
Gentlemen, just tracing from YARN test failures (TestDistributedShell) and
found that this patch break RM get started in insecure model which is very
risky to 2.7. I just filed HADOOP-11763 and deliver a quick patch to fix it
(comment out the default value of
"hadoop.http.authentication.signature.secret.file").
I am not sure if we can find some better way (like comments above - "modify the
RM to avoid binding the filter when it is not in the secure mode") quickly. If
not, let's go with the easy way like HADOOP-11763, or we should revert the
change here for 2.7 release.

> In Hadoop web console, by using AuthenticationFilterInitializer, it's allowed
> to configure AuthenticationFilter for the required signature secret by
> specifying signature.secret.file property. This improvement would also allow
> this when AuthenticationFilterInitializer isn't used in situations like
> webhdfs.
