Thats a good idea. I shall do that.
On a second thought, I feel its may not be such a good idea to change
the ConditionalLockBuffer return value. "boolean" is the most natural
way. And we don't save anything in terms on BufHdr locking.
So may be should just have two different functions and do the
BufferIsLockedForCleanup check immediately after acquiring the
exclusive lock.
