I think this will not work for Auxilary processes as they won't
call InitProcessPhase2(). It is better to initialize it in
InitProcGlobal() and then propagate it to backends for EXEC_BACKEND
cases as we do for ProcStructLock, AuxiliaryProcs.

Other trancheids are based on the name of their corresponding
LWLock, don't you think it is better to name it as
LWTRANCHE_BACKEND for the sake of consistency? Also consider
changing name at other places in patch for this tranche.
