Dshash currently waits for lock unconditionally. It is inconvenient
when we want to avoid being blocked by other processes. This commit
adds alternative functions of dshash_find and dshash_find_or_insert
that allows immediate return on lock failure.

That seems to date back to commit 14a9101.  I can agree that the suffix is
somewhat redundant since these are already marked as type "LWLock", but
I'll admit I've been surprised by this before, too.  IMHO it makes this
proposed test more important because you can't just grep for a different
lock to find all the places you need to update.

To do those things, I'd probably move the test to one of the scripts that
generates the documentation or header file (pg_wait_events doesn't tell us
whether a lock is predefined or what order it's listed in).  That'd cause
failures at build time instead of during testing, which might be kind of
nice, too.
