Daryn Sharp commented on HADOOP-6962:
-------------------------------------

I'm not sure I understand.  The static method created the parent dirs with 
default perms -- which was really translating to inheriting the parent dir's 
perms prior to the linked HDFS-1869 -- and then changing the last dir to have 
the requested perms.  After HDFS-1869, the parent dirs won't inherit and thus 
may unexpectedly be more permissive than the final directory.  This change 
brings the static method in line with the non-static method which will create 
all the dirs with the requested perms (with implicit u+wx for parents).  It 
also eliminates a RPC.

> FileSystem.mkdirs(Path, FSPermission) should use the permission for all of 
> the created directories

> Currently, FileSystem.mkdirs only applies the permissions to the last level 
> if it was created. It should be applied to *all* levels that are created.
