The hot standby patch has some hacks to decide which full-page-images
can be restored holding an exclusive lock and which ones need a
vacuum-strength lock. It's not very pretty as is, as mentioned in
comments too.
How about we refactor things so that redo-functions are responsible for
calling RestoreBkpBlocks? The redo function can then pass an argument
indicating what kind of lock is required. We should also change
XLogReadBufferExtended so that it doesn't lock the page; the caller
knows better what kind of a lock it needs. That makes it more analogous
with ReadBufferExtended too, although I think we should keep
XLogReadBuffer() unchanged for now.
See attached patch. One shortfall of this patch is that you can pass
only one argument to RestoreBkpBlocks, but there can multiple backup
blocks in one WAL record. That's OK in current usage, though.
