Description

NameNodeMXBean, NameNodeStatusMXBean, DataNodeMXBean are annotated @Public and @Stable, but some methods are being added. For example, DataNodeMXBean.getBPServiceActorInfo was added between branch-2.7.3 and branch-2.8. Adding methods to interfaces breaks the user classes which implement them, so we should make them @Private.
