Tom Lane f5b780c45c Remove unnecessary failure cases in RemoveRoleFromObjectPolicy().
It's not really necessary for this function to open or lock the
relation associated with the pg_policy entry it's modifying.  The
error checks it's making on the rel are if anything counterproductive
(e.g., if we don't want to allow installation of policies on system
catalogs, here is not the place to prevent that).  In particular, it
seems just wrong to insist on an ownership check.  That has the net
effect of forcing people to use superuser for DROP OWNED BY, which
surely is not an effect we want.  Also there is no point in rebuilding
the dependencies of the policy expressions, which aren't being
changed.  Lastly, locking the table also seems counterproductive; it's
not helping to prevent race conditions, since we failed to re-read the
pg_policy row after acquiring the lock.  That means that concurrent
DDL would likely result in "tuple concurrently updated/deleted"
errors; which is the same behavior this code will produce, with less
overhead.

Per discussion of bug #17062.  Back-patch to all supported versions,
as the failure cases this eliminates seem just as undesirable in 9.6
as in HEAD.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
