Hi hackers,

while working on the new system catalog pg_wait_event (see [1]) I noticed that 
some wait
events are currently "duplicated":

postgres=# select wait_event_name,count(*) from pg_wait_event group by 
wait_event_name having count(*) > 1;
 wait_event_name | count
-----------------+-------
 SyncRep         |     2
 WALWrite        |     2
(2 rows)

Indeed:

SynRep currently appears in "IPC" and "LWLock" (see [2])
WALWrite currently appears in "IO" and "LWLock" (see [2])

I think that can lead to confusion and it would be better to avoid duplicate 
wait event
name across Wait Class (and so fix those 2 ones above), what do you think?
