The control from the below ereport(ERROR, doesn't reach the short
write error part. IMO, the existing way does no harm, it is a mere
programming choice.

        if (nbytes < 0)
            ereport(ERROR,
                    (errcode_for_file_access(),
                     errmsg("could not write block %u in file \"%s\": %m",
                            blocknum, FilePathName(v->mdfd_vfd))));
        /* short write: complain appropriately */
        ereport(ERROR,
