Description:
Example output, we see "thread id 2176" has reserved a semaphore.
But in the transactions list, it is referred to as "thread handle 0x880"

----------
OS WAIT ARRAY INFO: reservation count 35
--Thread 6564 has waited at btr0cur.cc line 883 for 54.00 seconds the semaphore:
S-lock on RW-latch at 000000006666B810 created in file dict0dict.cc line 2446
a writer (thread id 2176) has reserved it in mode  exclusive
number of readers 0, waiters flag 1, lock_word: fff00000
Last time read locked in file not yet reserved line 0
Last time write locked in file btr\btr0btr.cc line 4553
OS WAIT ARRAY INFO: signal count 99
Mutex spin waits 12608, rounds 2507, OS waits 18

insert into t2(a) select a from t1 limit 10000000

How to repeat:
show engine innodb status,  read code

Suggested fix:
make both hex or both decimal, but not one of each ;-0

filed this as it dawned on me recently that not every mysql user knows what is hex  :)

Added a changelog entry for 5.7.2:

""SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS" output would reference a thread in hex format
(example: "thread handle 0x880") while the same thread would be referenced
in the "SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS" transaction list using a decimal format
(example: "thread id 2176")."
