------------------------------------
Yes, this patch has some test dependency on HIVE-11228 which I am working on
the backport to branch-1. Once done, I will backport this patch to branch-1 and
update the Status/Fix Version.

> Currently the column comments of an HBase backed table are always returned as
> "from deserializer". For example,
> {code}
> CREATE TABLE hbasetbl
> (key string comment 'It is key',
> state string comment 'It is state',
> country string comment 'It is country',
> country_id int comment 'It is country_id')
> STORED BY 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.hbase.HBaseStorageHandler'
> WITH SERDEPROPERTIES (
> "hbase.columns.mapping" = "info:state,info:country,info:country_id"
> );
> hive> describe hbasetbl;
> key string from deserializer
> state string from deserializer
> country string from deserializer
> country_id int from deserializer
> {code}
