They are not depedent at all, and not "fixup". The first is a fix, and
should go into -fixes ASAP. The other patch is completely stand-alone,
and an optimization (maybe). If that go in, it's for -next.

Having them as separate patches, makes it easier for
reviewers/maintainers. Now, with your approach there's more work
(cognitive, and manual) for others.
