The issue is incorrect upstream fix for
https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=76135. On x86, it replaced full
memory barriers at mutex lock/unlock with acquire/release ones. This
broke synchronisation between mutex lock_word and waiters flag,
resulting in missed waiting thread wakeups. These, in combination with
error monitor thread trying to acquire the mutex with a missed wakeup,
result in a server hang.
Fix by restoring previous behavior of full memory barriers on x86_64.
Not an upmerge because of 5.5.46 merge dependency.
