Apache Cassandra handles a case where the node hasn't joined the ring
and may consequentially have an outdated view of it. Following the same
reasoning as with the previous patch, we ignore this scenario. It
happens when there are range movements, and this node is bootstrapping,
but there are already other mechanisms in the cluster, such as hinted
handoff and dual-writing to replicas during range movements, that
contribute to this update eventually making its way to the view.
This patch doesn't change any behavior, but it provides the reasoning
why we won't use the batchlog as Cassandra does, or the hinted handoff
log as we will, to later send the update when the node is joined (note
that Cassandra just sends the mutations "later", and doesn't check
again for any condition or change).
