SQLB_VERIFY_PAGE, PROBE:6

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2
Problem description:
The prefetcher reports a bad page header error in 
sqlb_verify_page () when reading a temporary page. 
The stack trace will show the presence of funcion 
sqlbReadAndReleaseBlock()  as indicated 
below and the page type is always TEMPORARY.  While the error is 
not harmful and can be ignored, 
the fix for this APAR will change the behavior for prefetcher to
