Optional parameter sounds good, so made it get_partition_level(regclass [
, regclass ]) in the updated patch. Although, adding that argument is not
without possible surprises its result might evoke. Like, what happens if
you try to find the level of the root table by passing a leaf partition
oid for the root table argument, or pass a totally unrelated table for the
root table argument. For now, I've made the function return 0 for such cases.

Ah, okay. Removed pg_partition_tree_leaf_count.
Thanks,
