Yep, the link is not publicly accessible -- that's my bad (and I don't know how 
to update that comment if using just gerrit itself).

In short, the link points to a discussion for a couple of issues as it's seen 
when using the Kudu Java client.  The first issue was the absence of automatic 
authn token re-acquisition in the Java client, and the second issue was the 
invalidation of an authn token due to the expiration of its signing key.  The 
first issue is the client-side one, and the second is the server-side 
misconfiguration-like bug.

You are right -- since the former issue is addressed in 603c1578, the automatic 
authn token re-acquisition is also triggered when the latter manifests itself.  
So, from the Kudu client's perspective, it's only necessary to pick up 
changelist 603c1578 to handle both issues automatically.
