For developers it can be important to know their own development process, that's true. But for upstream it is an absolute preference to avoid breakages. So, we should never commit patches, that are known to contain problems. In this case it means, that patches 2 and 3 should be merged. It is good, that the problem has been detected and fixed during development or testing, this gives us a chance to avoid breaking the mainline, which we should certainly use.
