-------------------------------------------------------------

It might need a little bit efforts since qtest is using embedded HMS with its 
property hive.metastore.limit.partition.request default disabled, and Unit 
tests need convert the query predicates to expressions and pass them to the 
relevant HMS APIs. Maybe we can raise a JIRA for it.

> In many cases where an ExpressionTree could not be made from a filter (e.g. 
> parser fails to parse a filter etc.) and its value is null. But this null is 
> passed around and used by a couple of HMS methods which can cause 
> NullPointerException.
