To clarify, we're not talking about this scenario as "that's how it
would work after the resize". The point is that to expand shared buffers
they need to be initialized, included into the whole buffer machinery
(freelist, clock sweep, etc.) and NBuffers has to be updated. Those
steps are separated in time, and I'm currently trying to understand what
are the consequences of performing them in different order and whether
there are possible concurrency issues under various scenarios. Does this
make more sense, or still not?
