Change directory to the main directory of the kernel source - the one with subdirectories like arch, block, crypto, drivers, etc. Apply patches with a command of the form patch -p1 --dry-run < <nameofpatch> If that works without any error, then leave out the "--dry-run" to apply the patch. If/when it is necessary to remove the patch, adding a "-R" option will do that. When you build the kernel, you should do that as a normal user, not root. If the source files are not owned by that user, you should do a chown on that tree before starting.
