> Serving reads consistently from Observer Namenodes is a feature that was
> introduced in HDFS-12943.
> Clients opt-into this feature by configuring the ObserverReadProxyProvider.
> It is important that the opt-in is explicit because for third-party reads to
> remain consistent, these clients then need to perform an msync before reads.
> In HDFS-13522, the ClientGSIContext is implicitly added to the DFSClient thus
> enabling Observer reads for all clients by default. This breaks consistency
> guarantees for clients that haven't opted into observer reads.

> We need to return to the old behavior of only using the ClientGSIContext when
> users have explicitly opted into Observer reads.
