Please keep them as separate patches. It's fine to say in one patch
that it is needed for a following patch. Not exactly in those words
though.

Each patch should be a stand alone patch, such that a git blame comes
to it, we don't need to go searching further to see why a change was
made.

What a change log should say is something like.

"In order to do X, we need to do Y, because of Z" Where X is a
description of what is to come, Y is a description of what the current
commit is doing, and Z is the rational for that change.

Thanks,
