The cover letter should give reviewers a short introduction what a
patch series is about.  It's often not worth including a cover letter
if there is only a single patch, or only a couple of patches.

It is okay to send a cover letter for a single patch, however it
should include some explanation for the patch series, and not just
duplicate what's said in the commit message of the actual patch.  An
empty cover letter as this one here is just noise, and should be
omitted.
