MDEV-5345 - Deadlock between mysql_change_user(), SHOW VARIABLES and
INSTALL PLUGIN There was mixed lock order between LOCK_plugin, LOCK_global_system_variables and LOCK_system_variables_hash. This patch ensures that write-lock on LOCK_system_variables_hash doesn't intersect with LOCK_plugin. Fixed by moving initialization/deinitialization of plugin options from plugin_add()/plugin_del() to plugin_initialize()/plugin_deinitalize(). So that plugin options are handled without protection of LOCK_plugin.
