My preference is for the test case as a separate patch, last
in the series. For this kind of minor easy-to-review fix it
matters less, but sometimes the right fix for a problem might
be larger or more complicated, and then having the test case
in the same patch makes that patch awkwardly large.

Also the person able to review the code change and the person
able to review the test case might not be the same...
