Spark Streaming - java.io.IOException: Lease timeout of 0 seconds expired - apache-spark

Question

I have spark streaming application using checkpoint writing on HDFS.
Has anyone know the solution?
Previously we were using the kinit to specify principal and keytab and got the suggestion to specify these via spark-submit command instead kinit but still this error and cause spark streaming application down.
spark-submit --principal sparkuser#HADOOP.ABC.COM --keytab /home/sparkuser/keytab/sparkuser.keytab --name MyStreamingApp --master yarn-cluster --conf "spark.driver.extraJavaOptions=-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC --conf "spark.eventLog.enabled=true" --conf "spark.streaming.backpressure.enabled=true" --conf "spark.streaming.stopGracefullyOnShutdown=true" --conf "spark.executor.extraJavaOptions=-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC --class com.abc.DataProcessor myapp.jar
I see multiple occurrences of following exception in logs and finally SIGTERM 15 that kills the executor and driver. We are using CDH 5.5.2
