I think its better to do finishInitialization step fully.  Ashutosh and myself saw problems in the current way of handlng
-> MAster not knowing that a RS has gone down.
-> So no split happens
-> We tried to do all the steps from waitForRegionServers till the end, but here again the masterfilesystem is initializing the splitlogmanager.  
So can we call finish initialization itself once again?

> 1> ZK Session timeout in the hmaster leads to bulk assignment though all the RSs are online.
> 2> While doing bulk assignment, if the master again goes down & restart(or backup comes up) all the node created in the ZK will now be tried to reassign to the new RSs. This is leading to double assignment.
> we had 2800 regions, among this 1900 region got double assignment, taking the region count to 4700.
