A single PGSS entry's spinlock is used to be able to modify "counters" without holding pgss->lock exclusively, as mentioned at the top of pg_stat_statements.c and within pgssEntry. Within a single pgssEntry, stats_since and minmax_stats_since are never modified without holding pgss->lock exclusively, so there is no need to hold an entry's spinlock when reading stats_since and minmax_stats_since, as done when scanning all the PGSS entries for function calls of pg_stat_statements(). This also restores the consistency between the code and the comments about the entry's spinlock usage. This change is a performance improvement (it can be argued that this is a logic bug), so there is no need for a backpatch. This saves two instructions from being read while holding an entry's spinlock.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
