It looks like all the patches in this set do not contain a commit log in the body. It's up to the maintainer but I'm fairly certain they won't be accepted without a body.

Hi,
The thing is all these patches are related and have a cover letter explaining changes. But this seems to be a trivial change which is self explanatory. This should possibly suffice. What do you think?
Regards,

The cover letter does not end up in the repository. A cover letter can be helpful, but is not required. You MUST, however add a descriptive commit message to each patch for them to be accepted into the kernel. See Documentation/SubmittingPatches in the kernel sources.
