This patch extracts page buffer pooling and the simple
least-recently-used strategy from clog.c into slru.c.  It doesn't
change any visible behaviour and passes all regression tests plus a
TruncateCLOG test done manually.

Apart from refactoring I made a little change to SlruRecentlyUsed,
formerly ClogRecentlyUsed:  It now skips incrementing lru_counts, if
slotno is already the LRU slot, thus saving a few CPU cycles.  To make
this work, lru_counts are initialised to 1 in SimpleLruInit.

SimpleLru will be used by pg_subtrans (part of the nested transactions
project), so the main purpose of this patch is to avoid future code
duplication.

  * Shared-memory data structures for CLOG control
  *
- * We use a simple least-recently-used scheme to manage a pool of page
- * buffers for the CLOG.  Under ordinary circumstances we expect that write
- * traffic will occur mostly to the latest CLOG page (and to the just-prior
- * page, soon after a page transition).  Read traffic will probably touch
- * a larger span of pages, but in any case a fairly small number of page
- * buffers should be sufficient.  So, we just search the buffers using plain
- * linear search; there's no need for a hashtable or anything fancy.
- * The management algorithm is straight LRU except that we will never swap
- * out the latest page (since we know it's going to be hit again eventually).
- *
- * We use an overall LWLock to protect the shared data structures, plus
- * per-buffer LWLocks that synchronize I/O for each buffer.  A process
- * that is reading in or writing out a page buffer does not hold the control
- * lock, only the per-buffer lock for the buffer it is working on.
- *
- * To change the page number or state of a buffer, one must normally hold
- * the control lock.  (The sole exception to this rule is that a writer
- * process changes the state from DIRTY to WRITE_IN_PROGRESS while holding
- * only the per-buffer lock.)  If the buffer's state is neither EMPTY nor
- * CLEAN, then there may be processes doing (or waiting to do) I/O on the
- * buffer, so the page number may not be changed, and the only allowed state
- * transition is to change WRITE_IN_PROGRESS to DIRTY after dirtying the page.
- * To do any other state transition involving a buffer with potential I/O
- * processes, one must hold both the per-buffer lock and the control lock.
- * (Note the control lock must be acquired second; do not wait on a buffer
- * lock while holding the control lock.)  A process wishing to read a page
- * marks the buffer state as READ_IN_PROGRESS, then drops the control lock,
- * acquires the per-buffer lock, and rechecks the state before proceeding.
- * This recheck takes care of the possibility that someone else already did
- * the read, while the early marking prevents someone else from trying to
- * read the same page into a different buffer.
- *
- * Note we are assuming that read and write of the state value is atomic,
- * since I/O processes may examine and change the state while not holding
- * the control lock.
- *
- * As with the regular buffer manager, it is possible for another process
- * to re-dirty a page that is currently being written out.    This is handled
- * by setting the page's state from WRITE_IN_PROGRESS to DIRTY.  The writing
- * process must notice this and not mark the page CLEAN when it's done.
- *
  * XLOG interactions: this module generates an XLOG record whenever a new
  * CLOG page is initialized to zeroes.    Other writes of CLOG come from

+/*----------
+ * Shared-memory data structures for SLRU control
+ *
+ * We use a simple least-recently-used scheme to manage a pool of page
+ * buffers.  Under ordinary circumstances we expect that write
+ * traffic will occur mostly to the latest page (and to the just-prior
+ * page, soon after a page transition).  Read traffic will probably touch
+ * a larger span of pages, but in any case a fairly small number of page
+ * buffers should be sufficient.  So, we just search the buffers using plain
+ * linear search; there's no need for a hashtable or anything fancy.
+ * The management algorithm is straight LRU except that we will never swap
+ * out the latest page (since we know it's going to be hit again eventually).
+ *
+ * We use a control LWLock to protect the shared data structures, plus
+ * per-buffer LWLocks that synchronize I/O for each buffer.  A process
+ * that is reading in or writing out a page buffer does not hold the control
+ * lock, only the per-buffer lock for the buffer it is working on.
+ *
+ * To change the page number or state of a buffer, one must normally hold
+ * the control lock.  (The sole exception to this rule is that a writer
+ * process changes the state from DIRTY to WRITE_IN_PROGRESS while holding
+ * only the per-buffer lock.)  If the buffer's state is neither EMPTY nor
+ * CLEAN, then there may be processes doing (or waiting to do) I/O on the
+ * buffer, so the page number may not be changed, and the only allowed state
+ * transition is to change WRITE_IN_PROGRESS to DIRTY after dirtying the page.
+ * To do any other state transition involving a buffer with potential I/O
+ * processes, one must hold both the per-buffer lock and the control lock.
+ * (Note the control lock must be acquired second; do not wait on a buffer
+ * lock while holding the control lock.)  A process wishing to read a page
+ * marks the buffer state as READ_IN_PROGRESS, then drops the control lock,
+ * acquires the per-buffer lock, and rechecks the state before proceeding.
+ * This recheck takes care of the possibility that someone else already did
+ * the read, while the early marking prevents someone else from trying to
+ * read the same page into a different buffer.
+ *
+ * Note we are assuming that read and write of the state value is atomic,
+ * since I/O processes may examine and change the state while not holding
+ * the control lock.
+ *
+ * As with the regular buffer manager, it is possible for another process
+ * to re-dirty a page that is currently being written out.    This is handled
+ * by setting the page's state from WRITE_IN_PROGRESS to DIRTY.  The writing
+ * process must notice this and not mark the page CLEAN when it's done.
