HBase block cache".

  Dhruba, have you been running this patch anywhere?

  I'm +1 on commit if tests pass.  If its not been run anywhere, i can test it 
local before committing.

INLINE COMMENTS
  src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/io/hfile/HFileBlock.java:235 Is it odd 
that we only take in the minor version here and not major too?
  src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/io/hfile/HFileBlock.java:861 Why WARN?  
This is a 'normal' operation?
  src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/io/hfile/HFileBlock.java:1235 So, yeah, 
aren't we doubling the FDs when we do this?  The iops may be the same but the 
threads floating in the datanode for reading will double?
  src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/io/hfile/HFileBlock.java:1244 I'm not 
getting why no major version in here.
  src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/io/hfile/HFileBlock.java:1584 So, again 
we are defaulting true (though it seems that if no checksums in hfiles, we'll 
flip this flag to off pretty immediately)
  src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/io/hfile/HFileBlock.java:1589 Smile.  
Like now.
  src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/io/hfile/HFileBlock.java:1630 Extreme 
nit: Should we close the nochecksumistream if its not going to be used?


  Hmm... now I see we can flip back to using them again later in the stream
  src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/regionserver/HRegionServer.java:961 Now 
we have our own filesystem, we can dump a bunch of crud in there !  We can add 
things like the hbase.version check, etc. (joke -- sortof).
  
src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/regionserver/RegionServerServices.java:86 
I'm reluctant adding stuff to this Interface but I think this method qualifies 
as important enough to be allowed in.
  src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/util/ChecksumType.java:70 Great

> The current implementation of HDFS stores the data in one block file and the 
> metadata(checksum) in another block file. This means that every read into the 
> HBase block cache actually consumes two disk iops, one to the datafile and 
> one to the checksum file. This is a major problem for scaling HBase, because 
> HBase is usually bottlenecked on the number of random disk iops that the 
> storage-hardware offers.
