I'd be hesitant to apply this without understanding why contextInitialized
isn't being called.
> Log4jServletContextListener skips initialization and thusly never calls stop()

> Key: LOG4J2-2110
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2110
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Web/Servlet
> Affects Versions: 2.8, 2.8.1, 2.8.2, 2.9.0, 2.9.1
> Reporter: Thomas Beauvais
> Priority: Critical
>
> {{Log4jServletContextListener}} is not working in Tomcat 8 or 8.5 as it's
> never initialized.
> The {{contextInitialized}} is never called and thus it never sets the
> {{servletContext}}.
> This is checked when a {{servletContext}} is destroyed and ignored every time.
> The outcome, is that our customer appenders are never stopped leading to
> resource leaks.
