My understanding of the process; all the first preference votes are counted anyone who gets more than 50% wins outright this is unlikely outcome. I believe this is only possible for one candidate a, person I doubt that is Sadiq Khan. Personally I doubt he will, no candiate in all the Mayoral election has achieved this.
So there is a second round, where all but the top two drop out and peoples second preference votes are counted and one candidate wins. So it's ok to vote Green first pref and Khan second pref, the antis won't win by the back door and for me Khan is my second pref is a solid comment on his New Labour failings.
