InnoDB Buffer Pool initialized even if server won't start because of unknown variables

          Description

          If my.cnf contains a mistyped variable, MariaDB will not start and the error will be correctly reported in the error log. But before mysqld terminates, the InnoDB Buffer Pool will be initialized. This is annoying, because the initialization can take time.

          I understand that MariaDB cannot validate options before loading plugins, but could the Buffer Pool initialization be deferred until options validation?
