4c9c359, that introduced those two functions, has been overoptimistic on the point that only ShareUpdateExclusiveLock would be required when moving a relation to a new tablespace. AccessExclusiveLock is a requirement, but ShareUpdateExclusiveLock may be used under specific conditions like REINDEX CONCURRENTLY where waits on past transactions make the operation safe even with a lower-level lock. The current code does only the former, so update the existing comments to reflect that. Once a REINDEX (TABLESPACE) is introduced, those comments would require an extra refresh to mention their new use case. While on it, fix an incorrect variable name.

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: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ 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 web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
