Please break this up into one-patch-per-subsystem, like is required for
things like this.
Honestly, I've always been quite unsure how to handle situations like this.
It seems every subsystem maintainer has different preferences.
True, but at least if you see the specific driver in the MAINTAINERS, split for
that driver. For instance, 8250_dw in this patch is exactly the case.
I've previously encountered some maintainers who suggested I split such
patches by subsystem so each maintainer could merge them into their tree
without contention. However, other ones have argued that fixing spelling
errors isn't worth multiple commits, claiming it would create chaos.
Since I genuinely discover these spelling errors by chance each time, and to
avoid giving the impression I'm "spamming" the kernel tree for some ulterior
motive, I've opted to squash them into a single commit.
That said, I personally don't have any strong feelings or preferences on
this matter. Since you've requested it, I'll go ahead and split it up and
send a v2 patchset.
