pgsql: Prohibit shutting down resources if there is a possibility ofba - Mailing list pgsql-committers

Prohibit shutting down resources if there is a possibility of back up.

Currently, we release the asynchronous resources as soon as it is evident
that no more rows will be needed e.g. when a Limit is filled.  This can be
problematic especially for custom and foreign scans where we can scan
backward.  Fix that by disallowing the shutting down of resources in such
cases.
