You sent in your patch, bufmgr.patch to pgsql-hackers on Dec 19, but
you did not post it to the next CommitFest[1]. If this was
intentional, then you need to take no action. However, if you want
your patch to be reviewed as part of the upcoming CommitFest, then you
need to add it yourself before 2021-01-01 AoE[2]. Thanks for your
contributions.
