Thank you for updating the patch.

Some review comments.

I got the following warning messages when building. You might want to
include parser/parse_relation.h.

vacuum.c: In function ‘check_columns_exist’:
vacuum.c:567: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘attnameAttNum’

VACUUM

Even if the same relation is specified more than once, we should
vacuum the relation only once. Similarly if we specify the parent
table and its child table we want to vacuum each relation only once.
