That looks reasonable since both patches are fairly small, yes.

For a more complex patch that requires interdependent changes
in different areas of the kernel, it may be necessary instead to
come up with a way to stage out the changes differently so they
are truly independent. Getting that right requires a bit practice
but is usually possible.
