I assume you mean the consistency in quoting i.e., you're expecting the
patch to use (") instead of (') for quoting. Correct me, if I'm wrong.
Actually I did not imply any expectation on the outcome, because I
do not know what the consistency end game looks like for this issue.

So maybe we'd want to go with the currently most used way?
On scanning through Documentation/SubmittingPatches, I saw that most of
the commands were quoted using double quotes and chose to use it for
this patch. I'm not sure if it's the right one to use.
After reading the patch before seeing the above, I also came to the
conclusion that the above is exactly what you are aiming at, and I
thought that was a reasonable thing to do.
