    Dear committers:
    In China, most of companies are still using HDDs as external storage, the 
IO bottleneck is quite obvious in shuffle, we make this solution to use 1 PCIe 
SSD as cache, it completely eliminates IO bottleneck and with very low cost.
    
    In Baidu real production case, Spark SQL improves x1.7 with this patch.
    In Youku's machine learning case, the application improves x1.8 with this 
patch. 
    And because only 1 SSD is added, the cost is very attractive to customers.
    
    This PR is really important to Chinese internet and big data company, more 
and more company are showing interest and evaluating it in their environment. 
We are quite sure it will benefit others also, kindly help review.
    
    Much thanks!
