Not sure you what mean by "safe", but I would certainly try restarting
mysql. If for some reason, after a minute or two, that process doesn't
go away, I'd consider manually killing it, then restarting mysql.
Whether that solves the problem, is another can of worms, so to speak.
As mentioned, the logs would probably be informative.
