May be to clean up shared buffers so that a regular backend does not need
to write the page during eviction? Of course bgwriter would that but not
under user's control. Say user wants to force a checkpoint before some high
priority, response time sensitive tasks are started. Not sure though if
this a valid use case in real world.
