Hi Hackers, I just noticed that relation_mark_replica_identity() unconditionally opened pg_class with RowExclusiveLock even in cases where relreplident has no change, which incurred unnecessary relation opens, lock acquisition. I just made a tiny refactor that defers opening pg_class until we know that an update to relreplident is required. I have manually tested the change, and "make check" passed.
