Description

When DFSOutputStream writes to multiple blocks, it closes only the socket opened for the last block. When it is done with writing to one block it should close the socket.

I noticed this when I was fixing HADOOP-3067. After fixing HADOOP-3067, there were still a lot of sockets open (but not enough to fail the tests). These sockets were used to write to blocks.
