> Found a possible security issue where OmClientRequest#getUserInfoNotExists 
> might user an admin user (OM starter user) privilege if the client does not 
> specify any user info. I don't think normal clients will gain admin user 
> currently since both Hadoop RPC and gRPC clients should already have the user 
> info. However, I think it's best to for getUserInfoNotExists to not fallback 
> to the admin user since if we make any changes in getUserInfo that causes 
> userInfo's remoteAddress and userInfo's username to not be set, it might 
> cause cause privilege escalations.
