Review request for hive.


Bugs: HIVE-7441
    https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7441


Repository: hive-git


Description
-------

Problem (See HIVE-7441 description):
When Hive tries to concatenate the partition data files with hdfs cache is 
disabled (fs.hdfs.impl.disable.cache=true), the concatenated data file will be 
created under a partition directory with a name in form of /part=value (e.g. 
/b=part1).  If the original partition directory is different (e.g /part1), 
querying the concatenated partition returns empty result since the partition 
location metastore still points to the original partition directory (/part1).

Cause:
When hdfs cache is disabled, filesystem equals comparison returns false for two 
fs objects even from same filesystem, which causes the original partition 
directory (/part1) NOT to be assigned and used as the concatenated partition 
destination directory.

Solution:
Before HDFS-4321 is fixed, we compare two filesystems using their uri.
