That's really not a significant issue.
Simplicity in review is also important.
Mechanization of patch creation can reduce review efforts.

Few people are actively working on this particular codebase.
As far as I can tell no logical defect is being corrected here.
None of this is likely to be backported.

Applying each individual patch has a 'cost' in maintainer time
and review effort.

Fewer patches create lower overall costs.

Good luck...
