Jimmy Xiang commented on HBASE-6443:
------------------------------------
Looked into it again. A normal empty hlog file doesn't cause a problem with
log splitting. Only if the file is corrupted somehow, it causes problems:

If I manually ceate an empty hlog file, log splitting can handle it properly
with no problem.
