Andrew Wang commented on HADOOP-12055:
--------------------------------------

I'd like to commit this if there are no further comments. Please note that HADOOP-11483 already switched us over to the JDK7 hardlink for all the other usages and was released in 2.7.0. I also ran some performance tests myself and didn't see a difference between using our JNI implementation vs the JDK7 API.

> Since our min version is now JDK7, there's hardlink support via {{Files}}. This means we can deprecate the JNI implementation and discontinue usage.
