I think it would be possible to fix it in a less invasive way by taking
and releasing the ControlLock an extra time in SimpleLruReadPage and
SimpleLruWritePage.  What's indeterminate about that is the performance
cost.  In situations where there's not a lot of SLRU I/O traffic it's
presumably negligible, but in a case like Jim's where there's evidently
a *whole* lot of traffic, it might be a killer.
