Thanks for taking a look [~elgoiri]. Posting a new patch with the additional 
test cases ({{testNumberOfProvidedLocations}} and 
{{testNumberOfProvidedLocationsManyBlocks}}). 

bq. Should we make the block locations deterministic to some degree? I can see 
two mappers trying to accessing the same block and in that way some caching 
could be done.

Yes, that is entirely possible. I agree that returning a consistent set of 
locations can help with things like caching. We can fix this as part of 
HDFS-12809.

> On {{getBlockLocations}}, only one Datanode is returned as the location for 
> all PROVIDED blocks. This can hurt the performance of applications which 
> typically 3 locations per block. We need to return multiple Datanodes for 
> each PROVIDED block for better application performance/resilience.
