This looks like it was supposed to be a cover letter.  Typically
that's labelled as "patch 0" in the series.  Other handy traditions:

* The cover letter should contain a description of what changed
between this patch and the last one

* You only want a cover letter for a patch series with more than one
patch in it.  In your case you only have one patch so you should have
no cover letter.

* It's handy if your cover letter has prefixes that match the
subsystem just like the patch itself.  AKA: "spi: spi-geni-qcom:"


Personally I use "patman" to help me with sending out my patches.  See
