    Description

      There are two problems, one more severe than the other:

      1. The consumer blocks indefinitely if there is non-transient authorization failure during metadata refresh due to KAFKA-2391
      2. We get a TimeoutException instead of an AuthorizationException in the producer for the same case

      If the fix for KAFKA-2391 is to add a timeout, then we will have issue `2` in both producer and consumer.
