It looks like the first patch is 72 lines of commit message for a one-line fix, and the second patch is 61 lines of commit message for a two line fix.

I don't know what the record ratio is, but it's at least 96[1], so clearly you'll need to figure out how to pad your first commit message with at least another 25 lines before this series can be accepted. ;-)
