             Summary: Remove unnecessary Py4J ListConverter patch
                 Key: SPARK-17679
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17679
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: PySpark
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Jason White
            Priority: Minor


In SPARK-6949 davies documented a couple of bugs with Py4J that prevented Spark 
from registering a converter for date and datetime objects. Patched in 
https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/5570.

Specifically https://github.com/bartdag/py4j/issues/160 dealt with 
ListConverter automatically converting bytearrays into ArrayList instead of 
leaving it alone.

Py4J #160 has since been fixed in Py4J, since the 0.9 release a couple of 
months after Spark #5570. According to spark-core's pom.xml, we're using 0.10.3.

We should remove this patch on ListConverter since the upstream package no 
longer has this issue.
