> If the user calls the following in series:
> sc.requestExecutors(-5)
> sc.killExecutor(...)
> Then we might crash the ApplicationMaster. Why?
> Well, if we request a negative number of additional executors, then the 
> YarnAllocator will lower the target number of executors it is trying to 
> achieve by 5. This might shoot the target number past 0. Then, if so, when we 
> try to kill an executor it will fail the assertion that the target number 
> must be >=0.
