Looks like the NPE is coming from the getResultMetaData() call, which returns
the schema of the rows returned.
LOAD is probably one of the few calls which have no schema for its result

File a JIRA (with odbc driver version + exact version of Hive), because looks
like the JDBC drivers don’t trigger this codepath - specifically.
