Thanks for your feedback!

The reason we cannot stick the oid in pg_s_p_vacuum is because it will
not work for parallel vacuum as only the leader process has an entry
in pg_s_p_vacuum.

With a function the leader or worker pid can be passed in to the function
and will return the indexrelid being processed.

Sami
