Todd Lipcon commented on HBASE-4716:
------------------------------------
bq. When familyPaths is null, hasMultipleColumnFamilies() returns false.
familyPaths should never be null. It is an error for a user to pass a null
value to this RPC - the iteration later in bulkLoadsFile (line 2831) would
throw NPE. So there is no need to concern ourselves with what
hasMultipleColumnFamilies would return when passed null. Indeed we could add a
Preconditions.checkNotNull at the top of bulkLoadHFiles.
