I agree they are not related.

That's not really true. I tend to try to apply all patches I can from a
series, even if certain other patches of the series cannot be applied.
Look at the SELinux series for example. I have not applied some of the
first patches of the series, but already applied some patches later in
the series.

So while I agree it's a bit weird to mix completely independent stuff in
one single patch series, it's not actually that problematic.

Best regards,

Thomas
