    Arrays.hashCode handles null internally

> Hi, I have been looking at the TreeCache impl and have some questions.
> It doesn't look right to me that there's separate atomic refs for a node's 
> data and stat. It seems the stat in a ChildData object obtained from 
> getCurrentData() might not correspond to the data that it's with. This could 
> be problematic when doing conditional state changes given assumptions about 
> that data.
> An obvious and simple solution to this would be to have a single 
> AtomicReference<ChildData> field instead, which would have the additional 
> significant benefit of eliminating ChildData obj creation on every cache 
> access. PathChildrenCache works this way, but my understanding was that 
> TreeCache is intended to be a (more flexible) replacement.
> Furthermore I'd propose that the data field of ChildData be just a final 
> byte[] instead of an AtomicReference. This would avoid needing two volatile 
> reads to get to the data, and mean that "sharing" these (per above) is a bit 
> safer. The ChildData byte[] AtomicReference is only used by 
> PathChildrenCache.clearDataBytes() (not currently used by TreeCache at all), 
> and that capability could be easily maintained by having PathChildrenCache 
> use it's own simple subclass of ChildData containing the atomic reference.
> If similar capability were to be added to TreeCache, I'd suggest it would be 
> better to just replace the node's ChildData object with a copy that has the 
> byte[] field nulled out (but same stat ref).
> I'm fairly new to the code so apologies if there's something I've 
> missed/misunderstood! But if there is agreement, I'd also be happy to prepare 
> a PR.
> Regards,
> Nick
