Hm, so that must be coming from smgrcloseall(), which is the only user
of hash_seq_search on SMgrRelationHash. I bet that's popping up once a
second and the bgwriter is getting nothing done, because it's failing
again at the bottom of error recovery :-(. It's a good thing you
happened to notice those messages, because this is a pretty bad bug.
Anyway, I've committed a fix for that, so we can get back to the main
question, which is why you're getting the fsync error in the first place.
