I have again rebased it, this time it requires few more changes due to
the previous commits.  As we have to store hashm_maxbucket number in
prevblock number of primary bucket page, we need to take of same
during replay wherever applicable.  Also, there were few new tests in
contrib modules which were failing.  Attached patch is still a rebased
version of the previous patch, I will work on splitting it as per your
suggestion below, but I thought it is better to post the rebased patch
as well.

Okay, that makes sense to me as well.

Freeing the overflow page is too tightly coupled with changes related
to _hash_pgaddmultitup, so it might be better to keep it along with
it.  However, I think we can prepare a separate patch for changes
related to adding the overflow page.

Will try to prepare separate patches for the above three.
