Description:
Simple issue - see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/innodb-plugin/1.1/en/innodb-performance-aio-linux.html.

This paragraph is mentioned twice:

"If a problem with the asynchronous I/O subsystem in the OS prevents InnoDB from starting, set the option innodb_use_native_aio=0 in the configuration file. This new configuration option applies to Linux systems only, and cannot be changed once the server is running. "

How to repeat:
Very easily.

Suggested fix:
Remove the second paragraph.
