Keeping patches in a series separate makes sense when they show the
individual steps of a transition and thereby acting as documentation for
future readers of the git log.

But there's little value in documenting the steps that development took,
so please squash the code into commits that will look meaningful in the
git log.


(And then the DT binding patch should be kept separate, for process
reasons)
