I would break it up .. Especially pulling out run time changes from
cleanups .. Also neither patch has a sign off line, and this patch
actually adds one line over 80 so that at least doesn't go along with
your subject..

If your going to respin this patches your first patch "[PATCH] Cleanup:
indent/format errors, printk calls." added some trailing whitespace too.
So you could do both..
