Hi,

I can see that you have sent 3 patches for the same file. But they are
sent as separate patches. So, this might be confusing for the maintainer.

So, in this case these are some points you need to keep in mind:

1. You can send a single patch for the same warnings/errors in the same
file or directory covering all occurrences.

2. If you want to send patches for different errors in a single file then you
need to send a patch in the form of a patchset.

I think this should help you with understanding my point in a better way:
