> no-arg constructor of /org/apache/hadoop/conf/Configured calls setConf(null). This is unnecessary and it increases complexity of setConf() code because you have to check for not null object reference before using it. Under normal conditions setConf() is never called with null reference, so not null check is unnecessary.
