    "Pin", rather than "keep", dynamic shared memory mappings and segments. · 6057c212
    Robert Haas authored
    Nobody seemed concerned about this naming when it originally went in,
    but there's a pending patch that implements the opposite of
    dsm_keep_mapping, and the term "unkeep" was judged unpalatable.
    "unpin" has existing precedent in the PostgreSQL code base, and the
    English language, so use this terminology instead.
    
    Per discussion, back-patch to 9.4.
