Description
This exception is thrown when sortByKey is used as the shuffle transformation between MapWork and ReduceWork:

…
The root cause is that the RangePartitioner used by sortByKey contains rangeBounds: Array[BytesWritable], which is considered not serializable in spark.
A workaround to this issue is to set the number of partitions to 1 when calling sortByKey, in which case the rangeBounds will be just an empty array.
NO PRECOMMIT TESTS. This is for spark branch only.
