* The only way we currently have to know that an I/O initiated with
* PrefetchSharedBuffer() has that recovery will eventually call ReadBuffer(),
* and perform a synchronous read. Therefore, we track the number of
* PrefetchSharedBuffer() has completed is to wait for the corresponding call
* to XLogReadBufferInRedo() to return. Therefore, we track the number of
* potentially in-flight I/Os by using a circular buffer of LSNs. When it's
* full, we have to wait for recovery to replay records so that the queue
* depth can be reduced, before we can do any more prefetching. Ideally, this
* keeps us the right distance ahead to respect maintenance_io_concurrency.
* full, we have to wait for recovery to replay enough records to remove some
* LSNs, and only then can we initiate more prefetching. Ideally, this keeps
* us just the right distance ahead to respect maintenance_io_concurrency,
* though in practice it errs on the side of being too conservative because
* many I/Os complete sooner than we know.
