You can create function with security definer as super user
sth like this
create or replace function func () returns setof pg_stat_activity as '
select * from pg_stat_activity ; ' language SQL SECURITY DEFINER;

and if you want to se only query of session user you need to replace
* to columns from view pg_stat_activity , and to column query
you need to use CASE , when username == SESSION_USER : cur_query,
else null;
