Description

In HDFS-15480, the behavior of deleting the non-earliest snapshots is changed to marking them as deleted in XAttr but not actually deleting them. The users are still able to access the these snapshots as usual.

In this JIRA, the marked-for-deletion snapshots are hided so that they become inaccessible
to users.
