Isn't double-buffering solving this issue? Has somebody checked if it
even helps performance due to being able to release the lock on the
buffer *before* the syscall?

Double-buffering helps with the hint bit issues within shared buffers, but doesn't help with the torn page and hint bits problem. The torn page problem seems to be the show-stopper.
