Hm, ok then.

You can find the patch here:

    http://lists.askmonty.org/pipermail/commits/2014-November/007047.html

I pushed it here:

    lp:~maria-captains/maria/5.5-mdev7026

The idea is to:

1. Revert the original, incorrect changes to InnoDB mutex, make them be
unchanged on i386/amd64 compared to 5.5.39.

2. Add the missing full barriers in InnoDB mutex for PowerPC so the code works
similarly as on i386/amd64.

Feel free to use it or not, or modify it as you see fit.
