The default value of "tx_isolation" variable is to set the isolation 
level for the next (not started) transaction and it will be set to 
session value after the next transaction is end.
I think we shouldn't set the session value to default value in function 
"ha_autocommit_or_rollback()" if autocommit is off. Because the 
transaction isn't end.

Test and result:
