In my case the message was in logs when I try to assign partitions manually. After I've read in api docs of the new consumer follow notice:

It is also possible for the consumer to manually assign specific partitions (similar to the older "simple" consumer) using assign(Collection). In this case, dynamic partition assignment and consumer group coordination will be disabled.

That is, if you have code like this:

    KafkaConsumer consumer = new KafkaConsumer(props);
    consumer.assign( Arrays.asList(
            new TopicPartition("topic", 0),
            new TopicPartition("topic", 1)
    ));

then the message "Marking the coordinator 2147483647 dead" puts in our logs always.
