    Fix possible crash with GENERATED ALWAYS columns · 3cb02e30

    In some corner cases, this could also lead to corrupted values being
    included in the tuple.
    
    Users who are concerned that they are affected by this should first
    upgrade and then perform a base backup of their database and restore onto
    an off-line server. They should then query each table with generated
    columns to ensure there are no rows where the generated expression does
    not match a newly calculated version of the GENERATED ALWAYS expression.
    If no crashes occur and no rows are returned then you're not affected.
    
    Fixes bug #16369.
