    Add more critical-section calls: all code sections that hold spinlocks · 6162432d

    are now critical sections, so as to ensure die() won't interrupt us while
    we are munging shared-memory data structures.  Avoid insecure intermediate
    states in some code that proc_exit will call, like palloc/pfree.  Rename
    START/END_CRIT_CODE to START/END_CRIT_SECTION, since that seems to be
    what people tend to call them anyway, and make them be called with () like
    a function call, in hopes of not confusing pg_indent.
    I doubt that this is sufficient to make SIGTERM safe anywhere; there's
    just too much code that could get invoked during proc_exit().
