I am not sure this path really needs a cleanup.

You can hardly expect somebody will be thrilled about your patches when
their fault rate is close to 100%. Reviewing each patch takes time and
that is a scarce resource. If you want people to follow your patches
make sure you are offering something that might be interesting or
useful. Cleanups like these usually are not interesting without
either building something bigger on top of them or when they improve
readability considerably.
