It just means that it will execute the same initplan (subplan) just
once in master backend even if it used in multiple places.  This is
the same kind of usage as we have in ExecEvalParamExec.  You can find
its usage by using some query like

explain analyse select sum(t1.i) from t1, t2 where t1.j=t2.j and t1.k
= (select count(k) from t3) and t1.k=t2.k;

Ensure you insert some rows in t1 and t2 that match the count from t3.
If you are using the schema and data given in Kuntal's script in email
above, then you need to insert something like
t1(900,900,900);t2(900,900,900);

It generates plan like below:

postgres=# explain analyse select sum(t1.i) from t1, t2 where
t1.j=t2.j and t1.k = (select count(k) from t3) and t1.k=t2.k;

You can notice that initplan is used at multiple nodes, but it will be
evaluated just once.  If you want, I can add a sentence in the
comments, but I think this is somewhat obvious and the same use case
already exists.  Let me know if you still think that comments need to
be expanded?

I don't see any performance benefit here, so removed the if check.

Here, we want to save all the initplan params that can be used below
the gather node.  extParam contains the set of all external PARAM_EXEC
params that can be used below gather node and we just want initplan
params out of those.

I have kept comments atop of the function set_param_references to
explain the context, but now I have added few more in the code as
suggested by you.  See if that suffices the need.
