This is a quirk of patman that I've grown comfortable with. Still, we should fix it. Thanks for the patch.

yes, it's better. just need to import the match lib. I will change to this and sent v2 patch. Thanks.
BTW: speak of patman, I get an issue of using the "Series-prefix".
When I use Series-prefix like following in the commit: Series-prefix: U-Boot][ Then I get the patman generated patch like: [U-Boot][ PATCH] ^ a space here.
A space is before the 'PATCH', that annoys me. But I don't see you have such space in your patches. Any advice to avoid the extra space? Thanks in advance.

This is intentional, since if you use a prefix of 'RFC' we want to get 'RFC PATCH v2' instead of 'RFCPATCH v2'. See GetPatchPrefix(). Why do you want [U-Boot] anyway? That sounds more like the project than a patch prefix. Perhaps you could add an option to prepend the project in square brackets?

I tried a the project prefix, and that works for the format-patch command. But it not work for patman.
here is my steps: git config format.subjectprefix "U-Boot"
Now, when I run git format-patch, the generated patch will have "[U-Boot]" prefix. But if I run "patman -c1 -n", the [U-Boot] prefix is gone. It seems patman overide the format.subjectprefix option of git. Do you have an idea about what is the difference between the run "git format-patch -1" and "patman -c1"? thanks.

I suggest you add an option to prepend the patman project name (in square brackets) to patches, from the -p option.
Patman has to set up its own prefix when generating patches. See CreatePatches().
