BUG#54509: rpl_show_slave_running crashes the server sporadically
Problem: SQL and IO thread were racing for the IO_CACHE. The former to flush it, the latter to close it. In some cases this would cause the SQL thread to lock an invalid IO_CACHE mutex (it had been destroyed by IO thread). This would happen when SQL thread was initializing the master.info Solution: We solve this by locking the log and checking if it is hot. If it is we keep the log while seeking. Otherwise we release it right away, because a log can get from hot to cold, but not from cold to hot.
