Junio may or may not make small fixes himself when he picks up a patch
series. If you don't hear from him and your patches don't appear in
his 'pu' branch with that fix, re-rolling might be advisable.

If you do re-roll, perhaps consider simplifying the commit messages.
The patch itself states concisely and precisely what is being changed;
the lengthy prose description doesn't really add anything (and makes
more work for you and the reader of the message). It might be
sufficient to use a single-line (Subject:) commit message, like this:

    builtin/add.c: fix order of xcalloc arguments
