When Session 2 crashes (kill -9'ing it would also suffice), for some
reason, Session 1 doesn't get an opportunity to perform
RemoveTempRelationsCallback(). So, both the listp2's entry pg_class and
any references to it (such as its pg_inherits entry as partition of listp)
persist. listp2 won't be removed from the partition bound until all of
those catalog entries get removed.
