Jeffrey Zhong commented on HBASE-9773:
--------------------------------------

I checked the fix and I think it opens the door for double assignment. 
Basically closeRegion request is processed asynchronously. Even we send close 
RPC to a region's host region server, the region could open on another region 
server before the old region server really close the region. Then we end up in 
double assignment issue.

In addition, we potentially have a data loss situation. 
AM#forceRegionStateToOffline doesn't wait for region is fully closed. If a 
region is open while the old RS still flush, then some store files may not open 
in the new location. Even more, if the old RS crashes, the WAL splitting will 
be skipped then we have a permanent data loss.

[~jxiang] Could you please double check the above? Meanwhile let me try to come 
up an addendum patch. Thanks.
