Peter Somogyi commented on HBASE-19884:
---------------------------------------
Before HBASE-19811 the equals method used reference comparison, was missing
hashCode method and compareTo returned with {{Long.compare(this.overflow(),
that.overflow());}}. To keep the original behavior keeping compareTo as it is
now would be the right move and dropping equals method. Since it used reference
equality we can just remove it.

> Affects Versions: 2.0.0-beta-1
> Reporter: Peter Somogyi
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 2.0.0-beta-2

>
> BucketEntryGroup currently uses different fields to calculate compareTo,
> equals and hasCode.
> In some cases !a.equals(b) but a.compareTo(b) == 0. Javadoc of Comparator
> recommends that natural orderings be consistent with equals.
