Hi Lakshmi,

The patch applies cleanly to HEAD and compiles without warnings.
make check passes (one unrelated ICU collation diff).

The two CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() additions in do_autovacuum() look
correct and are well-placed at the top of each loop iteration,
before any resources are acquired.

I noticed there are other similar catalog scan loops in
autovacuum.c that also lack CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS():

- The pg_database scan loop around line 1854
- The pg_class scan loop around line 3664

Should those be covered as well?
