Based on the already patched file of course, otherwise you won't go
very far. You need to create a patch series. To do this, create a Git
branch, make a set of commits that stack on top of each other, and then
use git format-patch to create one patch file for each commit in your
branch, and send them with git send-mail.

You can look in the Buildroot manual, there are some explanations about
this:

Best regards,
