[DISCUSS] KIP-501 Avoid out-of-sync or offline partitions when follower fetch requests not processed in time

[Satish Duggana]

Hi All,
I wrote a short KIP about avoiding out-of-sync or offline partitions
when follower fetch requests are not processed in time by the leader
replica.
KIP-501 is located at https://s.apache.org/jhbpn

Please take a look, I would like to hear your feedback and suggestions.

JIRA: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-8733

Thanks,
Satish.
