Description

It's kind of a dumb one, in HRegion.doMiniBatchPut we do:

LOG.warn("No such column family in batch put", nscf);
batchOp.retCodes[lastIndexExclusive] = OperationStatusCode.BAD_FAMILY;

So we lose the family here, all we know is there's a bad one, that's what's in HRS.multi:

} else if (code == OperationStatusCode.BAD_FAMILY) {
  result = new NoSuchColumnFamilyException();

We can't just throw the exception like that, we need to say which one is bad even if it requires testing all passed MultiActions.
