bufmgr: Fix undefined behaviour with, unrealistically, large temp_buffers
Quoting Melanie:

All other places were already using the correct version. I (Andres), copied
the code into more places in a patch. Melanie caught it in review, but to
prevent more people from copying the bad code, fix it. Even if it is a
theoretical issue.
We really ought to wrap these accesses in a helper function...
As this is a theoretical issue, don't backpatch.
