Cos, Thanks for the comment.
HIVE-16302 is in Hive 3.0.0 so the patch can be removed when we upgrade
Hive to 3. On the Hive side, HoS(Hive on Spark) should work with Spark 2+ and
the Spark side, SparkSQL 2.2+ should work with Hive 2.x Metastore (AFAIK)
Please see my comment @ BIGTOP-2945
in short, if we have both Hive 2.3 and Spark 2.2(BIGTOP-2969), it should
work at all.---
