Description

While dropping table and there's on going write traffic, we saw hints generated on each node. You can find hints dispatch message in the log. Not sure if it's an issue.
Here are the reproduce steps:
1. Create a 3 nodes cluster:
$ ccm create test13696 -v 3.0.14 && ccm populate -n 3 && ccm start
2. Send some traffics with cassandra-stress (blogpost.yaml is only in trunk, if you use another yaml file, change the RF=3)
$ tools/bin/cassandra-stress user profile=test/resources/blogpost.yaml cl=QUORUM truncate=never ops(insert=1) duration=30m -rate threads=2 -mode native cql3 -node 127.0.0.1
3. While the traffic is running, drop table
$ cqlsh -e "drop table stresscql.blogposts"
