Failure of ./build

Failure of ./build

[Bill Atwood]

I am attempting to build the V4L-DVB Device Drivers according to 
https://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/How_to_Obtain,_Build_and_Install_V4L-DVB_Device_Drivers

The build stops with a failure message, the last few lines of which are 
shown in the following extract:

No file to patch.  Skipping patch.
1 out of 1 hunk ignored
make[2]: *** [apply_patches] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/bill/V4L/media_build/linux'
make[1]: *** [allyesconfig] Error 2

I am running Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS.  (I recently tried to update to 16.04 
LTS, but it fails for some obscure reason.)  My kernel is 
3.13.0-108-generic.

My capture card is a Hauppauge WinTV HVR 955Q, and it is plugged in. 
The device ID is 2040:b123 Hauppauge.

I understand the basics of using "make" and am well familiar with 
Linux/Ubuntu use, but these messages tell me nothing.  I would be happy 
to upload the entire output from the build, but I am reluctant to put 
all 273 lines in this message.

Can anyone suggest an approach to resolving my problem?

Hi Bill

with this patch I can get past the errors you are seeing. Those errors
are happening because recent changes in the mainline kernel have not
been reflected in the backport patches directory.

[Patch] remove unneeded pr_fmt patches

Recently  (bbdba43f) the pr_fmt macro was removed from ivtvfb.c, and
some lirc driver
files in staging were removed entirely (2933974c..f41003a23a). Update
pr_fmt.patch
to reflect those changes.

However - when I apply the above, the build still falls over, at:
