I think this is a timing issue similar to what Horiguchi-San has
pointed out but due to replication origins. We drop the replication
origin after the sync worker that has used it is finished. This is
done by the apply worker because we don't allow to drop the origin
till the process owning the origin is alive. I am not sure of
repercussions but maybe we can allow dropping the origin by the
process that owns it.
I think this will also be addressed once we start resuing
workers/slots/origin to copy multiple tables in the initial sync phase
as is being discussed in the thread [1].
