---------------------------------
This patch does not quite work. I've filed THRIFT-3769 as a follow-up to get
the improvement properly working.

> Thrift Server with TSaslTransport throws TTransportExceptions when deployed
> behind a hardware load balancer.
> We have deployed thrift servers HiveServer2 and HCatalog (both Apache Hive
> components) behind hardware load balancers. The load balancer does a TCP
> health check on the port where the thrift server (HiveServer2/HCatalog) is
> running. Some of the load balancers complete the TCP handshake and then close
> the connection without any data and therefore thrift has to handle it this
> connection. Because the TCP health check happens very frequently - about
> 10-20 times a minute, the logs are filled with TTransportExceptions. The
> current logic assumes a valid header and if its not present (TCP health
> check), then it keeps throwing exceptions.
> This JIRA attempts to ignore these which does not have a valid header.
