I wouldn't do this - it's overkill, and there's no way to go back. Instead,
if you really want to disregard all permissions on HDFS, you can just set
the config value "dfs.permissions" to "false" and restart your NN. This is
still overkill, but at least you could roll back if you change your mind
later. :)
