> Currently we have getSplits(JobContext job) in CombineFileInputFormat. 
> This api does not give freedom to the client to create a list if file status it self and then create splits on the resultant List<FileStatus> stats.
> The client might be able to perform some filtering on its end on the File sets in the input paths. For the reasons, above it would be a good idea to have getSplits(JobContext, List<FileStatus>).
> Please let me know what you think about this.
