That's indeed way simpler than before. Have you as well looked at the
most simple approach discussed? That would be just roughly replacing
the pg_fsync() calls currently in RecreateTwoPhaseFile() by a save
into a list as you are doing, then issue them all checkpoint. Even for
2PC files that are created and then removed before the next
checkpoint, those will likely be in system cache. This removes as well
the need to have XlogReadTwoPhaseData() work in crash recovery, which
makes me a bit nervous. And this saves lookups at the WAL segments
still present in pg_xlog, making the operation at checkpoint much
faster with many 2PC files to process.
