I don't think this is my item. Most of the behavior is old, and
pg_stat_get_wal_receiver() is from commit
b1a9bad9e744857291c7d5516080527da8219854.
(The logical replication equivalent of that is
pg_stat_get_subscription(), which does appear to use appropriate locking.)
I would appreciate if another committer can take the lead on this.
