Thanks for the update patch, Few comments:
1) Should we change "CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS()" to
"CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() or process specific interrupt handlers"
/*
* pg_log_backend_memory_contexts
* Signal a backend process to log its memory contexts.
*
* By default, only superusers are allowed to signal to log the memory
* contexts because allowing any users to issue this request at an unbounded
* rate would cause lots of log messages and which can lead to denial of
* service. Additional roles can be permitted with GRANT.
*
* On receipt of this signal, a backend sets the flag in the signal
* handler, which causes the next CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() to log the
* memory contexts.
*/

pg_log_backend_memory_contexts(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS)
2) Should we mention Postmaster process also along with logger and
statistics collector process
+ <glossterm linkend="glossary-backend">backend</glossterm> or the
+ <glossterm linkend="glossary-wal-sender">WAL sender</glossterm> or the
+ <glossterm linkend="glossary-auxiliary-proc">auxiliary
process</glossterm>
+ with the specified process ID. All of the
+ <glossterm linkend="glossary-auxiliary-proc">auxiliary
processes</glossterm>
+ are supported except the <glossterm
linkend="glossary-logger">logger</glossterm>
+ and the <glossterm
linkend="glossary-stats-collector">statistics collector</glossterm>
+ as they are not connected to shared memory the function can
not make requests.

+ They will appear in the server log based on the log configuration set
