Description:
The assert happens in handler.cc line 2326:
DBUG_ASSERT(next_insert_id >= auto_inc_interval_for_cur_row.minimum());

My script:
----------
--disable_warnings
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS t1;
--enable_warnings

CREATE TABLE t1 ( f2 BIGINT, f1 INT AUTO_INCREMENT, PRIMARY KEY (f1));
# Harmless INSERT INTO t1 ( f1 , f2 ) VALUES ( 2147483646 , 0 );
# Needed for crash
INSERT INTO t1 (f1,f2) VALUES (2147483647,0);
# Harmless INSERT INTO t1 (f2) VALUES (100),(26) ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE f1 = 1.1;
# Here comes the crash
INSERT INTO t1 (f2) VALUES (100),(26) ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE f1 = -1.1;

DROP TABLE t1;

This bug looks similar to
   Bug#46902 Assertion failed: next_insert_id >= 
             auto_inc_interval_for_cur_row.minimum()
but my testcase is quite different.

Test hitting the same assert:
CREATE TABLE t1 ( pk INT AUTO_INCREMENT, PRIMARY KEY (pk));
INSERT INTO t1 ( pk ) VALUES (-1);
CREATE TRIGGER tr1 BEFORE DELETE ON t1 FOR EACH ROW SET @aux = 1 ;
COMMIT ;
REPLACE INTO t1 ( pk ) VALUES ( NULL ) , ( -1 );

      Bug #50619 assert in handler::update_auto_increment
      
      This assert could happen during subsequent inserts if -1 had
      already been inserted into an auto increment column.
      
      The root cause of the problem is that auto increment values are
      internally stored unsigned while auto increment column types can
      be signed values. When an explict value is set for the auto 
      increment column, the internal auto increment value is reset to
      the explicit value + 1. However, if the explicit value is -1,
      converting this value to unsigned and adding 1 will yield 0 as
      a result (due to overflow). Since 0 would be outside the reserved
      auto increment interval for the insert (auto increment values
      should start at 1), the assert would be triggered.
      
      This patch fixes the problem by checking if the explicit value
      is negative. If this is the case, auto increment values are not
      reset.
      
      Test case added to auto_increment.test.

      Bug #50619 assert in handler::update_auto_increment
      
      This assert could be triggered if -1 was inserted into
      an auto increment column by a statement writing more than
      one row.
      
      Unless explicitly given, an interval of auto increment values
      is generated when a statement first needs an auto increment
      value. The triggered assert checks that the auto increment
      counter is equal to or higher than the lower bound of this
      interval.
      
      Generally, the auto increment counter starts at 1 and is
      incremented by 1 each time it is used. However, inserting an
      explicit value into the auto increment column, sets the auto
      increment counter to this value + 1 if this value is higher
      than the current value of the auto increment counter.
      
      This bug was triggered if the explicit value was -1. Since the
      value was converted to unsigned before any comparisons were made,
      it was found to be higher than the current vale of the auto
      increment counter and the counter was set to -1 + 1. This value
      was below the reserved interval and caused the assert to be
      triggered the next time the statement tried to write a row.
      
      This patch fixes the problem by only allowing the auto increment
      counter to be set if the given explicit value is positive.
      
      Test case added to auto_increment.test.

      Bug #50619 assert in handler::update_auto_increment
      
      This assert could be triggered if -1 was inserted into
      an auto increment column by a statement writing more than
      one row.
      
      Unless explicitly given, an interval of auto increment values
      is generated when a statement first needs an auto increment
      value. The triggered assert checks that the auto increment
      counter is equal to or higher than the lower bound of this
      interval.
      
      Generally, the auto increment counter starts at 1 and is
      incremented by 1 each time it is used. However, inserting an
      explicit value into the auto increment column, sets the auto
      increment counter to this value + 1 if this value is higher
      than the current value of the auto increment counter.
      
      This bug was triggered if the explicit value was -1. Since the
      value was converted to unsigned before any comparisons were made,
      it was found to be higher than the current vale of the auto
      increment counter and the counter was set to -1 + 1. This value
      was below the reserved interval and caused the assert to be
      triggered the next time the statement tried to write a row.
      
      With the patch for Bug#39828, this bug is no longer repeatable.
      Now, -1 + 1 is detected as an "overflow" which causes the auto
      increment counter to be set to ULONGLONG_MAX. This avoids hitting
      the assert for the next insert and causes a new interval of
      auto increment values to be generated. This resolves the issue.
      
      This patch therefore only contains a regression test and no code
      changes. Test case added to auto_increment.test.
