JBoss EAP6.4 log4j deadlock error

JBoss6.4 is using log4j 'per deployment logging' function. That means, JBoss application server itself adding log4j into application. When using multiple log4j implementations, log4j deadlock scenario may be caused. To avoid that, it can be added 'jboss-deployment-structure.xml' file into JBoss application WEB-INF.
