    Description

      The race condition occurs in following sequence of events:
      1. User issues a command-line kill for a RUNNING map-task. JT stores the task in tasksToKill mapping.
      2. TT reports the task status as SUCCEEDED.
      3. JT creates a TaskCompletionEvent as SUCCEEDED. Also sends a killTaskAction.
      4. Reducers fail fetching the map output.
      5. finally, the task would fail with Fetch failures. After HADOOP-4759, the task is left as FAILED_UNCLEAN task, since the task is present in tasksToKill mapping.
