Remove empty function BufmgrCommit().

tglsfdc · tglsfdc · commit 58c9600a9f58 · 2023-03-29T09:13:57.000-04:00
This function has been a no-op for over a decade. Even if bufmgr regains a need to be called during commit, it seems unlikely that the most appropriate call points would be precisely here, so it's not doing us much good as a placeholder either. Now, removing it probably doesn't save any noticeable number of cycles --- but the main call is inside the commit critical section, and the less work done there the better.
