Description
If a partition of a topic with idempotent producer has no data on 1 of the brokers, but it does exist on others and some of the segments for this partition have been already deleted replication thread responsible for this partition on the broker which has no data for it fails to start with out of order sequence exception:

We run kafka 0.11.0.1 and we ran into the situation when 1 of replication threads was stopped for few days, while everything else on that broker was functional. This is our staging cluster and retention is less than a day, so everything for partitions for which replication thread was down was cleaned up. At the moment we have a broker which cannot start replication for few partitions. I was also able to reproduce in my local test environment.
Another possible use case when this might cause real pain is disk failure or any situation when previously deleting all the data for the partition on a broker helped - since it would just fetch all the data from other replicas. Now it does not work for topics with idempotent producers. It might also affect other not-idempotent topics if those are unlucky to share same replication fetcher thread.
This seems to be caused by this logic: https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/0.11.0.1/core/src/main/scala/kafka/log/ProducerStateManager.scala#L119
and might be fixed in the scope of https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5793.
However any hints on how to get those partition to fully replicated state are highly appreciated.
