Description

The hbase.bulkload.staging.dir defaults to hbase.fs.tmp.dir which then defaults to

public static final String DEFAULT_TEMPORARY_HDFS_DIRECTORY = "/user/"
      + System.getProperty("user.name") + "/hbase-staging";

This default would have problem on local file system standalone case.

We can move the staging dir to be under hbase.rootdir. We are bringing secure bulkload to the core. It makes sense to bring it under core control as well, instead of an optional property.
