Submitting patches question

Hi,
I have submitted single line patches. I was wondering what is the
policy on the # of changes per patch? For instance the code below:
if (Index) {
data = ft1000_read_reg(dev, FT1000_REG_MAG_DPDATAL);
} else {
data = ft1000_read_reg(dev, FT1000_REG_MAG_DPDATAH);
}
the braces are not necessary according to the rules. Should I
A. submit 1 patch for the "if" portion and another for the "else" on
separate emails (i.e. two patches on separate emails)?
B. 1 patch for the whole thing (considering this is trivial change) ?
C. 2 separate patches but in 1-email only?
Thanks
