[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-9554) Introduce a api to check if authorization is supported by the FS

samar created HADOOP-9554:
-----------------------------

             Summary: Introduce a api to check if authorization is supported by the FS
                 Key: HADOOP-9554
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9554
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: samar


Need a new api on the FileSystem like isAuthorizationSupoorted()  which would help us to identify if we need to check for authorization. Hence, if  isAuthorizationSupoorted() == true and then only would proceed with the ownership check. This is required because some FS like S3 does not support Authorization and returns owners as "" . Having this check will help us skip the owner check
