One patch being ACK'd does not release the whole series to be applied
and the whole series will be treated as a complete unit for that
purpose.

So if discussion is holding up one patch in the series, it holds up
the entire series.

So get the entire series in acceptable condition, or submit only one
change at a time individually and wait for that one to be accepted
before you submit and ask for feedback on the next one.

I hope that makes things clear for you.
