OK.

During the test with latest patch, I found a dead lock between worker
and backend
on relation lock. To minimize the test scenario, I changed the number
of pages required
to start one worker to 1 and all parallel cost parameters as zero.

Backend is waiting for the tuples from workers, workers are waiting on
lock of relation.
Attached is the sql script that can reproduce this issue.
