-------------------------------------
@ram
We didn't find any problem now with the patch in 0.90 version testing,
but as the comment by Stack in HBASE-5270, maybe we could use a new method, so
i'm not sure whether to change the solution
> Concurrent processing of processFaileOver and ServerShutdownHandler may cause
> region to be assigned before log splitting is completed, causing data loss

> If master's processing its failover and ServerShutdownHandler's processing
> happen concurrently, it may appear following case.
> 1.master completed splitLogAfterStartup()
> 2.RegionserverA restarts, and ServerShutdownHandler is processing.
> 3.master starts to rebuildUserRegions, and RegionserverA is considered as
> dead server.
> 4.master starts to assign regions of RegionserverA because it is a dead
> server by step3.
> However, when doing step4(assigning region), ServerShutdownHandler may be
> doing split log, Therefore, it may cause data loss.
