I attach a simple patch that comments out the release of the buffer
pin for logged tables where an MVCC snapshot is used for a scan that
is not an index-only scan. This is the simplest way of evaluating the
effects of disabling 2ed5b87f9. Yura or others may find this helpful.
To be clear, I am certainly not suggesting that we should revert
2ed5b87f9. I do think that we need to give serious thought to fixing
the regression that 2ed5b87f9 introduced for LP_DEAD setting by index
scans, though.
