Put the patch in the directory where the arch, block, crypto, drivers, and so
forth directories are located. Then run the command
patch -p1 < 0001-......patch
After that, run "make" followed by "sudo make modules_install install". If your
distro is reasonable, that will give you a new entry in your boot menu.
