Is this mean we should leave safemode when all the blocks have been reported? I 
think sometimes users intendly to set the threshold > 1 to not leave safemode.

I think what Andrew suggests is not to leave safe mode if the threshold is > 1. 
I'm also with this.

Failing tests are related.

Please hold on commit. I need more time to review the idea and patch; we don't 
want to leave safemode too early.

> Startup safemode is triggered by two thresholds: % blocks reported in, and 
> min # datanodes. It's extended by an interval (default 30s) until these two 
> thresholds are met.
> Safemode extension is helpful when the cluster has data, and the default % 
> blocks threshold (0.99) is used. It gives DNs a little extra time to report 
> in and thus avoid unnecessary replication work.
> However, we can leave startup safemode early if 100% of blocks have reported 
> in.
> Note that operators sometimes change the % blocks threshold to > 1 to never 
> automatically leave safemode. We should maintain this behavior.
