ISTM we should just fix an uninitialized page first, using code from
VACUUM similar to
if (PageIsNew(page)) { ereport(WARNING,(errmsg("relation \"%s\" page %u is uninitialized --- fixing",
relname, blkno))); PageInit(page, BufferGetPageSize(buf), 0); }
then continue as before.
We definitely shouldn't do anything that leaves standby different to
primary.
