+ * Usually, a buffer pin and/or snapshot blocks pruning of otid, ensuring

+ * neither a pin nor a snapshot. Hence, we may see other LP_ states, each
+ * of which indicates concurrent pruning.
+ *
+ * Failing with TM_Updated would be most accurate. However, unlike other
+ * TM_Updated scenarios, we don't know the successor ctid in LP_UNUSED and
+ * LP_DEAD cases. While the distinction between TM_Updated and TM_Deleted
+ * does matter to SQL statements UPDATE and MERGE, those SQL statements
+ * hold a snapshot that ensures LP_NORMAL. Hence, the choice between
+ * TM_Updated and TM_Deleted affects only the wording of error messages.
+ * Settle on TM_Deleted, for two reasons. First, it avoids complicating
+ * the specification of when tmfd->ctid is valid. Second, it creates
+ * error log evidence that we took this branch.
+ *
+ * Since it's possible to see LP_UNUSED at otid, it's also possible to see
+ * LP_NORMAL for a tuple that replaced LP_UNUSED. If it's a tuple for an
+ * unrelated row, we'll fail with "duplicate key value violates unique".
+ * XXX if otid is the live, newer version of the newtup row, we'll discard
+ * changes originating in versions of this catalog row after the version
+ * the caller got from syscache. See syscache-update-pruned.spec.
