> We're seeing a behavior where a job runs long after all reducers were already 
> finished. We found that the job was rescheduling and running a number of 
> mappers beyond the point of reducer completion. In one situation, the job ran 
> for some 9 more hours after all reducers completed!
> This happens because whenever a node transition (to an unusable state) comes 
> into the app master, it just reschedules all mappers that already ran on the 
> node in all cases.
> Therefore, if any node transition has a potential to extend the job period. 
> Once this window opens, another node transition can prolong it, and this can 
> happen indefinitely in theory.
> If there is some instability in the pool (unhealthy, etc.) for a duration, 
> then any big job is severely vulnerable to this problem.
> If all reducers have been completed, JobImpl.actOnUnusableNode() should not 
> reschedule mapper tasks. If all reducers are completed, the mapper outputs 
> are no longer needed, and there is no need to reschedule mapper tasks as they 
> would not be consumed anyway.
