Thanks for the report.
This seems to broken since the following commit (I see you already cc'd
Peter):
commit 5e1963fb764e9cc092e0f7b58b28985c311431d9
Author: Peter Eisentraut <peter@eisentraut.org>

Collations with nondeterministic comparison
As of this commit, hashing functions hashtext() and hashtextextended()
require a valid collation to be passed in. ISTM,
satisfies_hash_partition() that's called by hash partition constraint
checking should have been changed to use FunctionCall2Coll() interface to
account for the requirements of the above commit. I see that it did that
for compute_partition_hash_value(), which is used by hash partition tuple
routing. That also seems to be covered by regression tests, but there are
no tests that cover satisfies_hash_partition().
Attached patch is an attempt to fix this. I've also added Amul Sul who
can maybe comment on the satisfies_hash_partition() changes.
BTW, it seems we don't need to back-patch this to PG 11 which introduced
hash partitioning, because text hashing functions don't need collation
there, right?
Thanks,
Amit
