As I mentioned in my last review I think feature wise the patch is ok, it just
needed a few minor changes. It's a small patch but can help *a lot* tools on
top of pg_stat_statements and give users a better overview of their workload so
it would be nice to commit it in v15.
I was busy looking at the prefetch patch today (not done yet), but I plan to
review the last version over the weekend. After a quick look at the patch it
seems like a compiler bug. I'm not sure which clang version is used, but can't
reproduce it locally using clang 13. I already saw similar false positive,
when a variable is initialized in a branch (here minmax_only == true), and only
then used in similar branches. I guess that pg_stat_statement_reset() is so
expensive that an extra gettimeofday() wouldn't change much. Otherwise
initializing to NULL should be enough.
