Exactly my impression.  This would apply now to the WAL shutdown code
paths, and I'd suspect that the callers of CreateCheckPoint() are not
going to increase soon.  The point is: the logs already provide some
contexts for any of those callers so I see no need for this additional
information.

I'd rather keep this code as-is.
