OK, I'll probably commit something like v4 then.
I still have a question though: if a buffer is exclusive-locked,
unmodified and clean, and then the caller registers it and later does
PageSetLSN (just as if it were dirty), is that a definite bug?
There are a couple callsites where the control flow is complex enough
that it's hard to be sure the buffer is always marked dirty before
being registered (like in log_heap_visible(), as I mentioned upthread).
But those callsites are all doing PageSetLSN, unlike the hash index
case.
