------------------------------------------------
See HADOOP-3493 for the failed TestStreamingFailure.
No test added since there are already a lot of tests using it.
> DFSPath cache of FileStatus can become stale

> Affects Versions: 0.16.0
> Reporter: Doug Cutting

>
> Paths returned from DFS internally cache their FileStatus, so that
> getStatus(Path) does not require another RPC. This cache is never refreshed
> and become stale, resulting in program error.
> This should not be fixed until FileSystem#listStatus() is removed by
> HADOOP-2563, and user code is thus no longer dependent on this cache for good
> performance.
