There's no easy answer.  For new reviewers/testers, the whole patch is better.

But for people who reviewed/tested the earlier patch, the delta is
better.

So a replacement patch is usually OK.  I will turn it into a delta with
a flick of the wrist and those people who I cc'ed on the patch (and
mm-commits subscribers) will get to see the delta.
