> cfhistograms was changed to use the yammer histograms CASSANDRA-5871.  Until CASSANDRA-5657's change to metrics we shouldn't represent the yammer histogram for latency metrics.  Yammer's histogram is based on assumption of a normal distribution and is bad at representing the tail percentiles with skewed distributions.  So revert the change just in the 2.1 branch but leave it for 3.0.
