What's the difference between what you're asking and the already
existing BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_PATCH configuration option?
config BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_PATCH
string "Custom kernel patches"
help
A space-separated list of patches to apply to the
kernel. Each patch can be described as an URL, a local file
path, or a directory. In the case of a directory, all files
matching linux-*.patch in the directory will be applied.
Best regards,
Thomas
