> Unlike the other block readers, BlockReaderLocal currently doesn't return -1
> on EOF when doing zero-length reads. This behavior, in turn, propagates to
> the DFSInputStream. BlockReaderLocal should do this, so that client can
> determine whether the file is at an end by doing a zero-length read and
> checking for -1.
> One place this shows up is in libhdfs, which does such a 0-length read to
> determine if direct (i.e., ByteBuffer) reads are supported.
