/**
+ * Check whether the given task set has been blacklisted to the point
that it can't run anywhere.
+ *
+ * It is possible that this taskset has become impossible to schedule
*anywhere* due to the
+ * blacklist. The most common scenario would be if there are fewer
executors than
+ * spark.task.maxFailures. We need to detect this so we can fail the
task set, otherwise the job
+ * will hang.
+ *
+ * There's a tradeoff here: we could make sure all tasks in the task set
are schedulable, but that
+ * would add extra time to each iteration of the scheduling loop. Here,
we take the approach of
+ * making sure at least one of the unscheduled tasks is schedulable.
This means we may not detect
+ * the hang as quickly as we could have, but we'll always detect the
hang eventually, and the
+ * method is faster in the typical case. In the worst case, this method
can take
+ * O(maxTaskFailures + numTasks) time, but it will be faster when there
haven't been any task
+ * failures (this is because the method picks on unscheduled task, and
then iterates through each
+ * executor until it finds one that the task hasn't failed on already).

you could shorten this name to eliminate "TaskSet" (which I think is
leftover from when it was in TaskSchedulerImpl)
