I thought that the initial spelling was meant to reference bufHdr variable
as if it was declared locally as we can see this name in other functions in
bufmgr.c (at 5d508736).

The point was to have no references to entities that you can't find in the
source tree.

I'm not sure how to arrange such changes to process them efficiently --
they could be split to multiple "Fix a typo" patches, of course.

By the way, I've just noticed that I fixed only one out of two typos in
"parititoned", so it's still spelled wrong: "partititoned". Sorry.

Best regards,
Alexander
