So you are just adding the reference to WALInsertLockRelease.. Instead
of writing the function names for LWLocks, I would just write "To
avoid calling CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS which can happen when releasing a
LWLock" and be done with it. There is no point to list a full function
dependency list, which could change in the future with static routines
of lwlock.c.
