I'm working on the cleanups as one patch per file to combine into a
patchset as you suggested. I've previously submitted a patch for one
of the files and I'm not entirely sure if I should create further
patches with my earlier patch applied, or if I should use the current
state of the file from the linux-next repository.

I don't want to create merge conflicts and headaches from what are
essentially trivial cleanup patches.
