Release Note

While writing hfiles from HFileOutputFormat forcing blocksize from table schema(HColumnDescriptor). Even if we configure hbase.mapreduce.hfileoutputformat.blocksize during bulkload/import it will be overridden with actual block size from table schema.

Description

While initializing mapreduce job we are not configuring hbase.mapreduce.hfileoutputformat.blocksize, so hfiles are always creating with 64kb (default)block size even though tables has different block size.
We need to configure it with block size from table descriptor.
