Review Comment:
   In what case addr would be null? We were not handling `addr == null` edge 
case before. Wondering what has changed.

> Been running HADOOP-18628 in production for quite sometime, everything works 
> fine as long as DNS servers in HA are available. Upgrading single NS server 
> at a time is also a common case, not problematic. Every DNS lookup takes 1ms 
> in general.
> However, recently we encountered a case where 2 out of 4 NS servers went down 
> (temporarily but it's a rare case). With small duration DNS cache and 2s of 
> NS fallback timeout configured in resolv.conf, now any client performing DNS 
> lookup can encounter 4s+ delay. This caused namenode outage as listener 
> thread is single threaded and it was not able to keep up with large num of 
> unique clients (in direct proportion with num of DNS resolutions every few 
> seconds) initiating connection on listener port.
> While having 2 out of 4 DNS servers offline is rare case and NS fallback 
> settings could also be improved, it is important to note that we don't need 
> to perform DNS resolution for every new connection if the intention is to 
> improve the insights into VersionMistmatch errors thrown by the server.
> The proposal is the delay the DNS resolution until the server throws the 
> error for incompatible header or version mismatch. This would also help with 
> ~1ms extra time spent even for healthy DNS lookup.
