> {{SaslDataTransferServer#receive}} needs to check if the DataNode is listening on a privileged port.  It does this by checking the address from the {{DatanodeID}}.  However, there is a window of time when this will be {{null}}.  If a client is still holding a {{LocatedBlock}} that references that DataNode and chooses to connect, then there is a risk of getting a {{NullPointerException}}.
