Sure, but the convention in the Linux community is to send them all as a
"series" using git send-email, preferably with a introductory cover
letter as the "0/N patch" so they arrive in a single thread and can be
reviewed together.  Otherwise bits tend to get lost in the enormous
flood of email that is LKML.
