In BufferSync(), we have this:

        /*
         * Unless this is a shutdown checkpoint, we write only permanent, dirty
         * buffers.  But at shutdown time, we write all dirty buffers.
         */
        if (!(flags & CHECKPOINT_IS_SHUTDOWN))
                flags |= BM_PERMANENT;

That seems bogus to me. We're mixing CHECKPOINT_* flags and buffer BM_* flags in the same variable. Furthermore, we only use that flags variable to pass it down to CheckpointWriteDelay(), which only pays attention to CHECKPOINT_IMMEDIATE flag. The intention was probably to do "mask |= BM_PERMANENT" ?
