Agree that this is problem, especially for the subscription creation
later. We should be doing WaitLatchOrSocket, but the question is which
latch. We can't use MyProc one as that's not the latch that WalReceiver
uses so I guess we would have to send latch as parameter to any caller
of this which is not very pretty from api perspective but I don't have
better idea here.
