Are you talking about the code added to ExecInitSeqScan() to determine which node function to call? If so, that's only called during executor startup. The idea here is to reduce the branching during execution by calling one of those special functions which has a more specialised version of the ExecScan code for the particular purpose it's going to be used for.
