There is one test case down below (inliner count update) where you had to attach the summary to the test case. Is there any reason the summary has to be present to get the count based on entry count and block frequency?
Do you mean only do the metadata-based hotness when computeSummary() returns true and the kind is PSK_Sample? I.e. if !computeSummary(), then assume instrumentation based? I could do that, it would mean a few less test changes.
