Bug#36579 Dumping information about locks in use may lead to a server crash
Dumping information about locks in use by sending a SIGHUP signal to the server or by invoking the "mysqladmin debug" command may lead to a server crash in debug builds or to undefined behavior in production builds. The problem was that a mutex that protects a lock object (THR_LOCK) might have been destroyed before the lock object was actually removed from the list of locks in use, causing a race condition with other threads iterating over the list. The solution is to destroy the mutex only after removing lock object from the list.
