Description:
create table t(a int) engine=maria;
insert into t values(1);
show create table t;
flush table t;
"maria_chk -dvv t" says "crashsafe: yes".
Then
alter table t transactional=0;
show create table t; # says transactional=0, good
flush table t;
"maria_chk -dvv t" still says "crashsafe: yes". Should say "no".
Could be similar to BUG#35441 "Cannot change PAGE_CHECKSUM table option".

How to repeat:
run commands above

Test of multiple combinations shows 3 forms of this bug:
# iteration 2
create table t1(a int) engine=maria  ;
show create table t1;
Table	Create Table
t1	CREATE TABLE `t1` (
  `a` int(11) DEFAULT NULL
) ENGINE=MARIA DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 PAGE_CHECKSUM=1
Crashsafe:           yes
alter table t1  transactional=0 ;
show create table t1;
Table	Create Table
t1	CREATE TABLE `t1` (
  `a` int(11) DEFAULT NULL
) ENGINE=MARIA DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 PAGE_CHECKSUM=1 TRANSACTIONAL=0
Crashsafe:           yes # should be no
# iteration 9
create table t1(a int) engine=maria transactional=0 ;
show create table t1;
Table	Create Table
t1	CREATE TABLE `t1` (
  `a` int(11) DEFAULT NULL
) ENGINE=MARIA DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 PAGE_CHECKSUM=1 TRANSACTIONAL=0
Crashsafe:           no
alter table t1  transactional=1 ;
show create table t1;
Table	Create Table
t1	CREATE TABLE `t1` (
  `a` int(11) DEFAULT NULL
) ENGINE=MARIA DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 PAGE_CHECKSUM=1 TRANSACTIONAL=1
Crashsafe:           no # should be yes
# iteration 14
create table t1(a int) engine=maria transactional=1 ;
show create table t1;
Table	Create Table
t1	CREATE TABLE `t1` (
  `a` int(11) DEFAULT NULL
) ENGINE=MARIA DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 PAGE_CHECKSUM=1 TRANSACTIONAL=1
Crashsafe:           yes
alter table t1  transactional=0 ;
show create table t1;
Table	Create Table
t1	CREATE TABLE `t1` (
  `a` int(11) DEFAULT NULL
) ENGINE=MARIA DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 PAGE_CHECKSUM=1 TRANSACTIONAL=0
Crashsafe:           yes # should be no
