Description:
In documentation, there is written that the scope of this variable is Both, i.e. Global as well as Session, but actually on accessing session scope of this variable, it returns error that the variable has only global scope.

How to repeat:
Sample Code: 
--Error 1238
SET @start_session_value = @@session.log_bin_trust_function_creators;

Output: 
SET @start_session_value = @@session.log_bin_trust_function_creators;
ERROR HY000: Variable 'log_bin_trust_function_creators' is a GLOBAL variable
