Attached patch fixes the problem, now we do perform full page writes
for bitmap pages.  Apart from that, I have rebased the patch based on
latest concurrent index patch [1].  I have updated the README as well
to reflect the WAL logging related information for different

With attached patch, all the review comments or issues found till now
are addressed.
