BTW, looking over this patch, I wonder about

        /*
         * Can't split if running in partitioned mode, nor if frozen, nor if
         * table is the subject of any active hash_seq_search scans.  Strange
         * order of these tests is to try to check cheaper conditions first.
         */
        if (!IS_PARTITIONED(hctl) && !hashp->frozen &&
            hctl->freeList[0].nentries > (long) (hctl->max_bucket + 1) &&
            !has_seq_scans(hashp))
            (void) expand_table(hashp);

ISTM that getting rid of the division obviates the concern that the
nentries condition is too expensive, and therefore we should revert
to checking it first, on the grounds that that condition is most
likely to fail.
