Description:
FOUND_ROWS() returns the full table count from the provided table on a query which only has one result.

Also, this differs if the same query is run on MySQL 5.5.29 and MySQL 5.6.10.

How to repeat:
Run the following script on MySQL 5.5.29 and MySQL 5.6.10. The last row 'SELECT FOUND_ROWS()' show '1' on 5.5.29 and '3' and on 5.6.10.

There are two ways to make 5.6.10 show '1', either by commenting the row marked with '# Fix 1' or '# Fix 2'. 

delete from test_resource_value;
delete from test_resource;
drop table test_resource_value;
drop table test_resource;

CREATE TABLE `test_resource` (
  `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `key` varchar(191) NOT NULL,
  `fallback_resource_id` int(10) unsigned DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
  UNIQUE KEY `k_UNIQUE` (`key`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=0;

CREATE TABLE `test_resource_value` (
  `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `resource_id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL,
  `country_id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL,
  `value` varchar(45) DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
  UNIQUE KEY `c_r_UNIQUE` (`country_id`,`resource_id`), # Fix 1
  KEY `resource_id` (`resource_id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=0;

INSERT INTO test_resource (`key`) values ("some.key");
INSERT INTO test_resource (`key`) values ("some.other.key");
INSERT INTO test_resource (`key`) values ("yet.another.key");

INSERT INTO test_resource_value (`resource_id`, `country_id`, `value`) VALUES (1, 1, "Some Value");
INSERT INTO test_resource_value (`resource_id`, `country_id`, `value`) VALUES (1, 2, "Some Other Value");
INSERT INTO test_resource_value (`resource_id`, `country_id`, `value`) VALUES (2, 1, "Second Value");
INSERT INTO test_resource_value (`resource_id`, `country_id`, `value`) VALUES (3, 2, "Third Value");

SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS
    * 
FROM
    test_resource r
    LEFT JOIN test_resource_value AS rv1 ON (rv1.country_id=1 and rv1.resource_id=r.id)
WHERE
    r.`key`='some.key' OR rv1.`value`='some.key'
ORDER BY r.`key` # Fix 2
LIMIT 100;

SELECT FOUND_ROWS();

Noted in 5.6.11, 5.7.1 changelogs.

Handling of SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS in combination with ORDER BY and 
LIMIT could lead to incorrect results for FOUND_ROWS().
[3 Mar 2013 20:03] Nick Le Mouton
So this was fixed or is there just a note to warn people that it might happen?
[4 Mar 2013 8:49] Tor Didriksen
Yes, fixed in the upcoming 5.6.11 release.

MySQL server compiled from "5.6.11-log Source distribution" still has this bug. 
After queries using SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS, ORDER BY and LIMIT, the FOUND_ROWS() call gives the wrong values.
