> remove null from subscribed topics in KafkaConsumer#subscribe
> --------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: KAFKA-3905

> Priority: Minor

> Currently, KafkaConsumer's subscribe methods accept Collection<String> as
> topics to be subscribed, but a Collection may have null as its element. For
> example
> {code}
> String topic = null;
> Collection<String> topics = Arrays.asList(topic);
> consumer.subscribe(topics)
> {code}
> When this happens, consumer will throw a puzzling NullPointerException:
