Andre,
It's often better to split a big patch up into smaller related pieces, especially if part of the patch is an important bug fix and other parts are of less certain merit.
This makes it a lot easier for Linus to verify the correctness of the changes, and means that the bug fixes will get out sooner.
Regards, Bill
