If it's multiple patches then it's best committed as multiple patches.
There's actually a git case for exactly this (to do with git bisect). I
remember reading it on the git list recently - you can push a group of
patches and tell git-bisect to use them as a single unit. The idea being
that they're a lot easier to verify individually, but any one of them
depends on the others and will break the system if processed in isolation.
