I mean one patch == the fewest number of files that must be changed
simultaneously.  This may vary from one (likely most common) to dozens
(likely very uncommon), depending on the specific changes involved.  I
expect most "memory leak" fixes don't require coordinated changes across
multiple files, and are better handled by one-file patches when that's
possible.
