Vinod K V updated MAPREDUCE-1607:
---------------------------------

    Hadoop Flags: [Incompatible change]

Marking this as an incompatible change: We are changing the directory structure 
for cleanup-attempt log-dir and so users will not be able to look at old 
cleanup-attempt logs.

> Task controller may not set permissions for a task cleanup attempt's log 
> directory

> Task controller uses the INITIALIZE_TASK command to initialize task attempt 
> and task log directories. For cleanup tasks, task attempt directories are 
> named as task-attempt-id.cleanup. But log directories do not have the 
> .cleanup suffix. The task controller is not aware of this distinction and 
> tries to set permissions for log directories named task-attempt-id.cleanup. 
> This is a NO-OP. Typically the task cleanup runs on the same node that ran 
> the original task attempt as well. So, the task log directories are already 
> properly initialized. However, the task cleanup can run on a node that has 
> not run the original task attempt. In that case, the initialization would not 
> happen and this could result in the cleanup task failing.
