Description

As the default configuration file shows
https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/core-default.xml

we can configure the option "hadoop.work.around.non.threadsafe.getpwuid" in the core-default.xml. But it does not work because
the key expected in org.apache.hadoop.io.nativeio.NativeIO.java is

static final String WORKAROUND_NON_THREADSAFE_CALLS_KEY =
"hadoop.workaround.non.threadsafe.getpwuid"; // no a dot between "work" and "around"

we can change it to hadoop.workaround.non.threadsafe.getpwuid in the default configuration file.
