Sean Busbey reopened HBASE-21247:
---------------------------------

please revert this.

You can already provide a class name for something that implements WALProvider 
for the config "hbase.wal.provider". It's in the code and also documented in 
the javadoc for WALFactory.

{code}

 * Configure which provider gets used with the configuration setting 
"hbase.wal.provider". Available
 * implementations:
 * <ul>
 *   <li><em>defaultProvider</em> : whatever provider is standard for the hbase 
version. Currently
 *                                  "asyncfs"</li>
 *   <li><em>asyncfs</em> : a provider that will run on top of an 
implementation of the Hadoop
 *                             FileSystem interface via an asynchronous 
client.</li>
 *   <li><em>filesystem</em> : a provider that will run on top of an 
implementation of the Hadoop
 *                             FileSystem interface via HDFS's synchronous 
DFSClient.</li>
 *   <li><em>multiwal</em> : a provider that will use multiple "filesystem" wal 
instances per region
 *                           server.</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * Alternatively, you may provide a custom implementation of {@link 
WALProvider} by class name.

> Currently all the WAL Providers acceptable to hbase are specified in 
> Providers enum of WALFactory.
> This restricts the ability for additional WAL Providers to be supplied - by 
> class name.
> This issue introduces additional config which allows the specification of new 
> WAL Provider through class name.
