Hi [~anoop.hbase], sorry for not responding to this JIRA for a long time.
I uploaded a patch to add some comments to the Cell interface, to explain why 
getTagsLength() returns an int, which I hope could be of a little help for the 
new comers (just like me). Could you please take a look, there is not code 
change in the patch.

> In the Cell interface, getTagsLength() returns a int
> But in the KeyValue implementation, tags length is of 2 bytes. Also in 
> ExtendedCell, when explaining the KeyValue format, tags length is stated to 
> be 2 bytes
> Any plan to update Cell interface to make getTagsLength() returns a short ?
