On PPC64 high-loaded server may crash due to assertion failure in InnoDB rwlocks code.

This happened because load order between "recursive" and "writer_thread" wasn't properly enforced.

Looks ok. I failed to understand why the patch would fix the assertion mentioned in the bug report. But the patch itself looks correct. - Kristian.
