Description:
CREATE TABLE t1 (a int)
PARTITION BY RANGE (a)
SUBPARTITION BY LINEAR HASH (a)
(PARTITION p0 VALUES LESS THAN (10));

SELECT * FROM information_schema.partitions WHERE table_schema = "test"
AND table_name = t1;

Output from Subpartition Method only shows HASH and not LINEAR HASH as expected.

How to repeat:
CREATE TABLE t1 (a int)
PARTITION BY RANGE (a)
SUBPARTITION BY LINEAR HASH (a)
(PARTITION p0 VALUES LESS THAN (10));

SELECT * FROM information_schema.partitions WHERE table_schema = "test"
AND table_name = t1;

Output from Subpartition Method only shows HASH and not LINEAR HASH as expected.

Suggested fix:
Ensure LINEAR keyword is added when present
