There is no hard rule about it, but I would appreciate it. In the end,
it’s the maintainers’ decision. You can amend the commit, and then
regenerate the patch with `git format-patch -1 -v2`. Below the --- line
you can add a short change-log, what you changed between the patch
iterations.

I have not seen this yet.

No problem. This has happened to all of us. Congratulations on your
first(?) Linux kernel contribution. Glad to have you and I am looking
forward to your next improvements.
Kind regards,
