-1, but maybe it's fine.

I would like to discuss a complaint from the compatibility report. I
believe it is against our promises and I don't see it discussed on the
relevant jiras nor noted above.

ByteBufferUtils is IA.Public and had a public method removed in
HBASE-20716 (the jira is not marked as an incompatible change). It
looks like we could just add the method back, since it's a variant of
more general purpose method that was added.

things that came up fine:

* checked checksums and signatures
* checked ~5 worker cluster using bin artifact with YCSB workloadA
(8u181) for correctness, not perf.
* checked source artifact against 1.5.0RC2 tag
* spot checked LICENSE
