> When the Kafka consumer is configured with {{batching=true}} but 
> {{maxPollRecords}} is not explicitly set, the consumer thread fails with a 
> NullPointerException as soon as the batching processor is constructed (on the 
> first poll / reconnect).
> h3. Root cause
> {{KafkaConfiguration.maxPollRecords}} is an {{Integer}} field with *no 
> initializer* (null by default). The {{@UriParam(defaultValue = "500")}} on it 
> is only catalog/documentation metadata and is NOT applied to the field at 
> runtime.
> * In *streaming* mode this is harmless: the value is only pushed to Kafka via 
> {{addPropertyIfNotEmpty(props, MAX_POLL_RECORDS_CONFIG, 
> getMaxPollRecords())}} (KafkaConfiguration.java:583), which skips null and 
> lets the Kafka client fall back to its own default of 500.
> * In *batching* mode the Camel code reads the value directly:
> ** {{KafkaRecordBatchingProcessor.java:119}} -> {{new 
> ArrayBlockingQueue<>(configuration.getMaxPollRecords())}} unboxes null -> NPE 
> at construction.
> ** {{KafkaRecordBatchingProcessor.java:173}} -> {{exchangeList.size() >= 
> configuration.getMaxPollRecords()}} would also NPE.
> h3. Impact
> Enabling the documented, supported {{batching}} feature out of the box 
> crashes the consumer thread. The docs/catalog also mislead by advertising 
> {{defaultValue=500}} while the field is actually null at runtime.
> h3. Proposed fix
> Initialize the field to 500 ({{private Integer maxPollRecords = 500;}}), 
> matching the sibling {{sessionTimeoutMs}}/{{pollTimeoutMs}} fields which are 
> initialized. This makes the documented default real and does not change 
> streaming behaviour (Kafka's own default is also 500). Add a regression test 
> that starts a batching consumer without setting {{maxPollRecords}}.
