Yea, in the enabled case. Also, can't we skip the whole

    if (TransactionIdIsValid(xid))
    {
        if (BufferIsPermanent(buffer))
        {
            /* NB: xid must be known committed here! */
            XLogRecPtr    commitLSN = TransactionIdGetCommitLSN(xid);

            if (XLogNeedsFlush(commitLSN) &&
                BufferGetLSNAtomic(buffer) < commitLSN)
            {
                /* not flushed and no LSN interlock, so don't set hint */
                return;
            }
        }
    }

part if state is SHB_DISABLED?
