Actually, why don't we use that machinery to implement this? There's currently

Okay, the attached patch prevents the creation of restartpoints by using
rm_safe_restartpoint callback if we've not reached a consistent state yet
and the invalid-page table is not empty. But the invalid-page table is not
tied to the specific resource manager, so using rm_safe_restartpoint for
that seems to slightly odd. Is this OK?
I don't think this should use the rm_safe_restartpoint machinery. As you
said, it's not tied to any specific resource manager. And I've actually
been thinking that we will get rid of rm_safe_restartpoint altogether in
the future. The two things that still use it are the b-tree and gin, and
I'd like to change both of those to not require any post-recovery
cleanup step to finish multi-page operations, similar to what I did with
GiST in 9.1.
