Description

When running the balancer I see the message:

 Not running balancer because dead regionserver processing

But that's not true, it does run, because the check is wrong:

if (!this.serverManager.areDeadServersInProgress()) {
  LOG.debug("Not running balancer because dead regionserver processing");
}

Also it doesn't return false like it should.
