Well, it was brin_page.h,

It's this calculation that threw me off:
statsData.revmapNumPages = (indexRanges / REVMAP_PAGE_MAXITEMS) + 1;

Hello,
I just realized that 7e534adcdc7 broke support for hypothetical
indexes using BRIN am. Attached patch fix the issue.

I'll add this patch to the next commitfest.
