I am not sure how useful it is to give WARNING in this case as we are
anyway not going to perform a parallel vacuum because it doesn't have
an index? One can also say that WARNING is expected in the cases
where we skip a parallel vacuum due to any reason (ex., if the size of
the index is small), but I don't think that will be a good idea.
