Commit d466335064 changed things so
that shm_toc_lookup would fail with an error rather than silently
returning NULL in the hope that such failures would be reported
in a useful way rather than via a system crash. However, it
overlooked the fact that the lookup of PARALLEL_KEY_ERROR_QUEUE
in ReinitializeParallelDSM is expected to fail when no DSM segment
was created in the first place; in that case, we end up with a
backend-private memory segment that still contains an entry for
PARALLEL_KEY_FIXED but no others. Consequently a benign failure
to initialize parallelism can escalate into an elog(ERROR);
repair.
