 Review comment:
   I agree that it has benefits to reduce steps for managing the lifecycle of 
input gate. But I thought of another potential concern if integrating it within 
`setup`. 
   
   The previous assumption was that the output recovery should execute earlier 
than the input recovery in order to occupy more floating buffers from global, 
to get the benefit to speedup recovery process. Now the output recovery is 
executed by task thread during `StreamTask#beforeInvoke`. If we integrate the 
input recovery within `setup` process, then it would perform before output 
recovery to occupy more floating buffers in limited buffers environment.
   
   I also considered integrating the output recovery within 
`ResultPartition#setup`, but the output recovery is executed by task thread 
then it would block the following operations, so I wonder it might also bring 
potential risks to do so.
