Peter Somogyi commented on HBASE-21762:
---------------------------------------
You're right, we have this line in the Reference Guide:
{quote}Client API compatibility
APIs available in a patch version will be available in all later patch
versions. However, new APIs may be added which will not be available in earlier
patch versions.

> For example, clearRegionCache, getHbck, etc. The getHbck method will be
> marked as IA.LimitedPrivate to indicate that normal user should not use it.
> And I think this is OK, as it is not easy to use the Hbck interface directly,
> and the name 'hbck' also implies that it should not be used for normal case.
