Right.

Thanks for the review.

I agree. As Sawada-san mentioned, brin metapage code can use a similar patch.
So attached are three patches for gin, brin, and sp-gist respectively.
Both brin and sp-gist cases didn't require any special consideration for
passing wal_consistency_checking, as the patch didn't cause brin and
sp-gist metapages to become invalid when recreated on standby (remember
that patch 0001 needed to be updated for that).
Thanks,
Amit
