Honestly I don't come up with other users of the new
log-level. Another possible issue is it might be a bit hard for people
to connect that level to huge_pages=try, whereas I think we shouldn't
put a description about the concrete impact range of that log-level.
I came up with an alternative idea that add a new huge_pages value
try_report or try_verbose, which tell postgresql to *always* report
the result of huge_pages = try.
regards.
