I'm fine with this. So what about the following diff? I added <structname> tag.
<varname>pg_stat_statements.track_planning</varname> controls whether
planning operations and duration are tracked by the module.
Enabling this parameter may incur a noticeable performance penalty,
- especially when a fewer kinds of queries are executed on many
- concurrent connections.
+ especially when statements with identical query structure are executed

The default value is <literal>off</literal>.
Only superusers can change this setting.
