More verbose please, e.g how to handle each case of exception (or maybe 
comment in the code).

"REGULAR" seems to generic, need a better name.

A question I forget the answer, so may ask again. What if secondary 
packet comes late?

Shouldn't we need to remove all "old" packets here?

We need make sure this function was called from colo thread, but it

If secondary packet comes late, primary queue has some primary packet.
we use timer to regular call colo_compare_connection(), In here,
we foreach conn->primary_list, if have old primary packet(secondary 
packet comes late),
will call colo_notify_checkpoint() to do a checkpoint,that can make primary
and secondary be same.

Yes, In next version I will make old_packet_check related codes 
independent with
colo_compare_connection().

Currently we needn't this, will move it to "work with colo-frame" 
related patch.
