One concern with this change is that the OldLogCleaner as it is implemented 
will now have to run through the cleaner checks for every regionserver's 
subdirectory instead of doing them all in one batch. It will likely make the 
cleaner chore much slower and may not be able to keep up for large clusters.

I don't think this will be problem. Currenly the HFileCleaner have to run 
through the cleaner checks for every store's subdirectory of every region of 
every table and we didn't see the problem of efficiency. So I won't need to 
worry about the OldLogCleaner in new layout of old layout.

What's more, we can turn up the cleaner period by config 
hbase.master.cleaner.interval.

> Currently all old WALs of regionservers are achieved into the single 
> directory of oldWALs. In big clusters, because of long TTL of WAL or disabled 
> replications, the number of files under oldWALs may reach the 
> max-directory-items limit of HDFS, which will make the hbase cluster crashed.

>  The directory item limit of /hbase/lgprc-xiaomi/.oldlogs is exceeded: 
> limit=1048576 items=1048576

> A simple solution is to separate the old WALs into different  directories 
> according to the server name of the WAL.
> Suggestions are welcomed~ Thanks
