It is not guaranteed that a crashed master can be used as a new
standby as-is, since there can be unsent WAL records on the old master
after the LSN where the new master promoted.  If files are assumed to
be sound, pg_rewind will adjust the old master as  a new standby.

The .partial file is created when timeline diverges at midst of a WAL
segment. It is useful when performing PITR to the end of the same
timeline, rather than going into the next timeline.  I don't have an
idea at hand of how this can be relevant to the reusability of the old
master..
