Looks like the new not equals code does not properly take into account
a missing NULL partition.

create table ta (a int not null) partition by list (a);
create table ta1 partition of ta for values in(1,2);
create table ta2 partition of ta for values in(3,4);
explain select * from ta where a <> 1 and a <> 2;
ERROR:  negative bitmapset member not allowed

-- Add null partition
create table ta_null partition of ta for values in(null);
explain select * from ta where a <> 1 and a <> 2; -- works now.
                         QUERY PLAN
-------------------------------------------------------------
 Append  (cost=0.00..48.25 rows=2525 width=4)
   ->  Seq Scan on ta2  (cost=0.00..48.25 rows=2525 width=4)
         Filter: ((a <> 1) AND (a <> 2))
(3 rows)

This code appears to be at fault:

/*
* Also, exclude the "null-only" partition, because strict clauses in
* ne_clauses will not select any rows from it.
*/
if (count_partition_datums(relation, boundinfo->null_index) == 0)
excluded_parts = bms_add_member(excluded_parts,
boundinfo->null_index);
