Having each commit point be buildable and testable is certainly a
worthwhile goal from a bisect point of view. But for a simple no-op diff
(i.e. functionaly identical, just moving a few bits around) which will
then get updated with functional changes there is an argument to squash
the two together.

I like this patch series because the individual patches are narrow in
scope and not too big hence easier to review. I don't think squashing
some of non-function + functional diffs together detracts from that
nobel goal. As you say it's a judgement call.
