Since you're only sending a patch you should not include a cover letter. 
A cover letter should be included when your patches are more than one 
and they deal the same subject. So here you should only write a summary 
about it, like:
'''
Subject: Add i.MX GPT timer support

This pachset adds i.MX GPT timer support and a modify to dts for 
imxrt1050-ekv that enables you to check its functionality.

You should move ^^^ these changes as they are in patch 1/1.

Also take care that this patch is difficult to test alone since a 
defconfig(this is easy to enable) and a dts(this is really welcome) are 
missing, then you should also include at least the dts you were working 
at least. And that makes sense to have a patchset again then(because of 
2 patches).
