I'm trying against linux-git as
     cat 0027-xHCI-Fixing-xhci_readl-definition-and-function-call.patch| 
patch
and then after i enter the required file (drivers/usb/host/xhci-dbg.c).
it's giving me  message

File to patch: drivers/usb/host/xhci-dbg.c
patching file drivers/usb/host/xhci-dbg.c
can't find file to patch at input line 180
Perhaps you should have used the -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:

but when i saw the file i found changes are applied there.

I had made the patch using git format-patch. what could be the possible 
reason behind this issue or am i mistaking somewhere?


Regards
Kumar Gaurav
