Review Comment:
   > @zxl-333, is it possible to delete the table under non-hive user? 
Everything under the managed directory should be owned exclusively by the Hive 
user

   Yes, not a Hive user.For example, when the hdfs user created the "test_drop" 
table, the spark user was authorized by hdfs to read this table. However, the 
spark user deleted the "test_drop" table. On the engine side, a successful 
deletion message was received, but the metastore log showed the following 
abnormal information. The hdfs file did not actually get deleted.
