Description

The can be reproduced with the following steps.

1. start ZK and 1 broker (with default delete.topic.enable=false)
2. create a topic test
bin/kafka-topics.sh --zookeeper localhost:2181 --create --topic test --partition 1 --replication-factor 1
3. delete topic test
bin/kafka-topics.sh --zookeeper localhost:2181 --delete --topic test
4. restart the broker

Now topic test still shows up during topic description.
bin/kafka-topics.sh --zookeeper localhost:2181 --describe
Topic:test PartitionCount:1 ReplicationFactor:1 Configs:
Topic: test Partition: 0 Leader: 0 Replicas: 0 Isr: 0

However, one can't produce to this topic any more.
bin/kafka-console-producer.sh --broker-list localhost:9092 --topic test
