Re: Enabling Checksums

Attached is some bit rot updates to the checksums patches.  The 
replace-tli one still works fine.  I fixed a number of conflicts in the 
larger patch.  The one I've attached here isn't 100% to project 
standards--I don't have all the context diff tools setup yet for 
example.  I expect to revise this more now that I've got the whole week 
cleared to work on CF submissions.

Here's the bit rot fixes:

src/backend/commands/vacuumlazy.c:  Changed a call to look like this:

1157                 visibilitymap_set(onerel, blkno, buffer, 
InvalidXLogRecPtr, *vmbuffer,
1158                                 visibility_cutoff_xid);

To match calling order and make complier warnings go away.

src/backend/storage/buffer/bufmgr.c : merged against some changes 
related to unlogged table buffer management.  Merge seems clean once 
done by hand.

src/include/catalog/pg_control.h:  The patch used this value for XLOG_HINT:
#define XLOG_HINT                               0x90

That's now been used for XLOG_END_OF_RECOVERY so I made it 0xA0 instead:
#define XLOG_HINT                               0xA0

Unrelated to merge issues, I saw this in the patch:

localbuf.c:  XXX do we want to write checksums for local buffers? An option?

And wanted to highlight this concern is still floating around.
