What changes were proposed in this pull request?
This pull request removes the SparkContext.clearFiles() method from the PySpark API as the method was removed from the Scala API in 8ce645d. Using that method in PySpark leads to an exception as PySpark tries to call the non-existent method on the JVM side.
How was this patch tested?
Existing tests (though none of them tested this particular method).
