That'll teach me to try to read code from a patch directly without trying to
apply it or at least read the original source next to it. I thought I had seen
this code recently enough to apply the patch from memory -- clearly not.
I assume the right thing happens if multiple deadlock check signals fire for
the same autovacuum?
