Please don't squash fixup patches when I've merged your patch already -
usually I only drop patches when they're terminally broken, so if you send
me a new version I have to fiddle things to make it all apply. But
squashing in a fixup patch is simpler. And imo also easier to review.

And once we deal in fixup patches it's ok to have a bunch of them imo,
too.
