While looking into the patch, I realized that a normal backend has to
check almost 10 if conditions at worst case inside XLogWrite(6 in
am_background_process method, 1 for write, 1 for blocks, 2 for
fsyncs), just to decide whether it is a normal backend or not. The
count is more for walwriter process. Although I've not done any
performance tests, IMHO, it might add further overhead on the
XLogWrite Lock.

I was thinking whether it is possible to collect all the stats in
XLogWrite() irrespective of the type of backend and update the shared
counters at once at the end of the function. Thoughts?
