This patchset includes change happened in greybus driver in three

Different patches should have different subject lines.
But I have already the same edit in both file, so should I re-write the
subject for one of them?
You need to either
be more specific about the file affected or merge the two patches with the
same subject into one.
each patch related to different file. So, Can I to merge two commits for
different files but have the same edit in one patch?
Yes, or make 2 different patches with 2 different subject lines as they
are obviously doing different things.
okay, I will fix it.

but in this case no need to create patchset for all changes in `greybus`
driver, right?

If okay with that, should I versioning the patches to resend them again, or
should add "RESEND" subject prefix?

please tell me the best way to resend these patches, appreciate your help.
What would you want to see if you had to review and apply loads of
patches like this?
sure add version number will be easy to review.
(hint, it's not a resend, but a new version...)

thanks,
