Description

For example, -X PUT should be removed from the following curl command.

WebHDFS.md

### Get ACL Status

* Submit a HTTP GET request.

        curl -i -X PUT "http://<HOST>:<PORT>/webhdfs/v1/<PATH>?op=GETACLSTATUS"

Other than this example, there are several commands which -X PUT should be removed from. We should fix them all.
