    /* If part of a checkpoint, count this as a buffer written. */
    if (fdata)
        CheckpointStats.ckpt_bufs_written++;
+       PendingCheckpointerStats.buf_written_checkpoints++;
Also, the proposed patch would touch PendingCheckpointerStats even
when there is no fdata, aka outside the context of a checkpoint or
shutdown sequence..
