Subject: [PATCH] Previously pg_backend_memory_contexts doesn't have any
 restriction and anyone could access it. However, this view contains some
 internal information of the memory context. This policy could cause security
 issues. This patch revokes all on pg_shmem_allocations from public and only
 the superusers can access it.
