We don't have a lock on the relation, so if it gets dropped
concurrently, it won't behave sanely. For example, get_rel_name() will
return NULL which seems incorrect to me.

I am not sure about this as well because you will instead do a RELOID
cache lookup even when there is no row filter or column list.
