Going by [1] it was used when it went in. It looks like it was for mapping attribute numbers between parent and partition rels. Going by [2], it looks like it became unused due to the attribute mapping code being moved down into map_partition_varattnos(). As for whether we should remove it or not, because it's an external function that an extension might want to use, it would need to wait until at least we branch for PG15. Likely it's best to add the patch to the July commitfest so that we can make a decision then.
