hi all,i dived into hbase source these days.when i read at the
HRegion#doMiniBatchMutation(...) block then one question flashed in my mind:why
did writer use at least one rowlock to implement mutation?(ie.Puts or Deletes
etc)
since if i have 10 rows to update,then it means that 9 rows have no
rowlocks.so is 'at least one rowlock' more symbolic than practical significane?
AFAIK now,i think it's used to verify hbase' basic functions eg. rowlock
mechanism.

release:hbase-0.94.2
pardon me if it's a bit old,but i just wonder to know its principle inside it.
one more thing, my english is poor,so sorry for any typo.
many thanks~
