Description

This issue is originally reported at https://community.hortonworks.com/questions/196223/jolttransformjson-specification-property-fails-wit.html

There is a wrong if statement in how JoltTransformJSON validates the spec when it contains EL. The processor tries to check if the JoltSpec contains any custom transformation class to fail fast, but it fails to get a JoltSpec because EL can not return a valid spec at the validation phase.
