No complaints, except for a small nit.

We use "mutation" instead of "mutate" as a verb here and there in the codebase. It's not grammatically correct, at least in American and British English. In an API this matters. Call the action CheckAndRowMutate. 

Naming a state carrying object like 'RowMutations' is fine, this is a noun.

> The use case is that the user has multiple threads loading hundreds of keys into a hbase table. Occasionally there are collisions in the keys being uploaded by different threads. So for correctness, it is required to do checkAndPut() instead of a put(). However, doing a checkAndPut() rpc for every key update is non optimal. It would be good to have a batch version of checkAndPut() similar to batch put(). The client can partition the keys on region boundaries.
> The jira is NOT looking for any type of cross-row locking or multi-row atomicity with checkAndPut()
> Batch version of checkAndDelete() is a similar requirement.
