-----------------------------------
Don't worry. It happened to me as well. Let me take a look at the patch, and +1
if everything is good (I hope so). This way, you don't have to roll it back.
> Add workaround for a deadlock issue of Class.getAnnotation()

> [JDK-7122142|https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-7122142] mentions that
> there is a race condition in getAnnotations. This problem can lead deadlock.
> The fix on JDK will be merged on jdk8, but hive supports jdk6/jdk7 currently.
> Therefore, we should add workaround to avoid the issue.
