Posting them in a series is fine; it is customary to put independent things first such that they will not get stuck after the larger changes.

Yes, this is a 'fun' case :-) I'd just merge the change into your patch introducing it and forget I 'contributed' the name change.
For larger patches you could do something like (in your email body):
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
Changelog goes here...
Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Luca... ---
$PATCH
Which says this patch is from me, carried by you, and then I'll stick another SoB on to indicated I took it back. Its a bit weird, but we've done it before.
