  what is the best way to send in a patch for quite a number of
tree-wide (ie., unrelated) typos throughout the source? almost all of
them are innocuous -- either comments or in printed strings, so they
*shouldn't* break anything.

  these days, i have a separate "typos" git branch where i just
collect typos i run across, and keep rebasing it against "master" to
stay up to date. and since this appears to be the u-boot merge window,
i figure now is a good time to send it in. but, as i said, it's spread
all over the tree, so is a single patch even a good idea, or should i
try to break it into smaller, bite-size pieces?
