    Description

      This bug was introduced with merge from MySQL 5.5:

      rpl.rpl_auto_increment 'mix,xtradb' w1 [ pass ] 1972
      ***Warnings generated in error logs during shutdown after running tests: rpl.rpl_auto_increment

      Warning: 114 bytes lost, allocated at sql/log_event.cc:3223, sql/log_event.cc:1527, sql/log_event.cc:1379, sql/slave.cc:5017, sql/slave.cc:2711, sql/slave.cc:3622, perfschema/pfs.cc:1015, ??:0
      Warning: 288 bytes lost, allocated at sql/log_event.h:1101, sql/log_event.cc:1527, sql/log_event.cc:1379, sql/slave.cc:5017, sql/slave.cc:2711, sql/slave.cc:3622, perfschema/pfs.cc:1015, ??:0
      Warning: 70 bytes lost, allocated at sql/log_event.cc:1367, sql/slave.cc:5017, sql/slave.cc:2711, sql/slave.cc:3622, perfschema/pfs.cc:1015, ??:0, ??:0
      ...

      The problem is the newly introduced class in MySQL 5.5, class
      Deferred_log_events:

      bool is_last(Log_event *ev)

      { return ev == last_added; }

      ;

      But when the memory pointed to by last_added is freed, the last_added pointer
      is not reset. This causes is_last() to randomly return true incorrectly,
      depending on what exact pointer is returned by malloc(). This in turn causes
      exec_relay_log_event() to randomly not free its events.
