Some other projects emphasize smaller and logically self-contained
patches.  Here, the preference definitely seems to be towards making
bigger patches rather than many small ones.  But I'm not aware of any
strict policy in this regard; it seems to be mostly at your own
discretion.

Someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but my take is this:

It's really up to what you feel makes more sense: if they are closely
related, you might prefer sending them in one patch; otherwise, it might
be better to send the changes in separate patches.

(My personal preference is to avoid bundling unrelated changes.
 But I don't always work like that in Emacs.)
