The error can occur at multiple places (like via palloc or various
other places) between the first time we subtract the change_size and
add it back after the change is re-computed. I think the correct fix
would be that in the beginning we just compute the change_size by
ReorderBufferChangeSize and then after re-computing the change, we
just subtract the old change_size and add the new change_size. What do
you think?
