If you want to post a patch with an injpoint test, please feel free to
post it to let someone else a way to reproduce a given problem.
They're useful for the purpose of reproducing an issue.  Now I don't
think that this specific one is worth having in the tree, that feels
like a waste of test cycles.

I would not mind acting on these.  Both of you are pointing to two
different problems: they deserve two patches, one each.

I'd suggest to wait a bit for Robert a bit in case he'd like to
comment on the file size expectation of the on-disk stash advice file.
Saying that, could you adjust the 2PC file?  I'd just fix that now and
be done with it..
