Great!  Let's close this and work on HDFS-927.

> The investigation showed that the root of this issue is that we exceeded # of xcievers in the data nodes and that was fixed by changing configuration settings to 2k.
> However - one thing that bothered me was that even after datanodes recovered from overload and most of client servers had been shut down - we still observed errors in the logs of running servers.
> Further investigation showed that fix for HADOOP-1911 introduced another problem - the DFSInputStream instance might become unusable once number of failures over lifetime of this instance exceeds configured threshold.
> The fix for this specific issue seems to be trivial - just reset failure counter before reading next block (patch will be attached shortly).
> This seems to be also related to HADOOP-3185, but I'm not sure I really understand necessity of keeping track of failed block accesses in the DFS client.
