-----------------------------------
The trunk precommit failed to download the patch and failed. I just kicked the
build again and it looks like going this time.

> The dataset lock is very highly contended. The unfair nature can be
> especially harmful to the heartbeat handling. Under high loads, partially
> expose by HDFS-12136 introducing disk i/o within the lock, the heartbeat
> handling thread may process commands so slowly due to the contention that the
> node becomes stale or falsely declared dead. The unfair lock is not helping
> and appears to be causing frequent starvation under load.
