Daryn Sharp commented on HADOOP-10499:
--------------------------------------
Although it makes sense to remove an unused parameter, I wonder if the
parameter should be honored? It would allow different rpc services to have
different proxy superuser configurations as opposed to the current static
configuration... It probably made sense when daemons generally had only one
rpc service. I don't have a strong opinion because I suppose it could be
re-added/implemented by another jira.

> The Configuration parameter is not used in the authorize() function. It can
> be removed and callers can be updated.
> Attaching the simple patch which removes the unused _conf_ parameter and
> updates the callers.

> external callers.
