When a ListPartitionReassignmentsRequest containing a non-existing topic-partition is sent to the controller, the controller returns a ListPartitionReassignmentsResponse with the top level error code set to UNKNOWN_TOPIC_OR_PARTITION. If multiple topic-partitions are passed in the same request, the caller has no way to know which ones do not exist any more. It has to use another admin call to figure it out and then retries the former.
Instead, the controller should ignore any non-existing topic-partitions. It is fine because they don't have any reassignments by definition so the contract of the API remains valid.
