Don't retry forever when waiting on too many store files
--------------------------------------------------------
Key: HBASE-2752
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2752
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Jean-Daniel Cryans
Assignee: stack
Priority: Critical
Fix For: 0.20.5, 0.21.0
HBASE-2087 introduced a way to not block all flushes when on region has too
many store files. Unfortunately, that undid the behavior that if we waited for
longer than 90 secs then that we would still flush the region... which means
that when a region blocks inserts because its memstore is too big it's
actually holding off writes for a very long time, occupying handlers, etc.
We need to add more smarts in MemStoreFlusher so that we detect when a region
was held up for too long.
