Yes, you're right.

How about this:
diff --git a/src/backend/partitioning/partbounds.c
b/src/backend/partitioning/partbounds.c
index 6fb150a8763..53c409cf2b1 100644
--- a/src/backend/partitioning/partbounds.c
+++ b/src/backend/partitioning/partbounds.c
@@ -4863,7 +4863,13 @@ satisfies_hash_partition(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS)
}
else
{
- ArrayType *variadic_array = PG_GETARG_ARRAYTYPE_P(3);
+ ArrayType *variadic_array;
+
+ /* Return false if the array is NULL. */
+ if (PG_ARGISNULL(3))
+ PG_RETURN_BOOL(false);
+
+ variadic_array = PG_GETARG_ARRAYTYPE_P(3);

/* allocate space for our cache -- just one
FmgrInfo in this case */
fcinfo->flinfo->fn_extra =

This way can avoid two get_fn_expr_variadic() calls if the last
argument is not combined into an array.
Thoughts?
