I was trying to say that tablespace listing will happen under
PROGRESS_BASEBACKUP_PHASE_WAIT_CHECKPOINT phase which could be a
problem if it is a costly operation but as you said it is pretty cheap
so I think we don't need to bother about that.
Apart from the above point which I think we don't need to bother, both
your patches look good to me.
