Use 'git quiltimport' to import the patches, that should give you an
executable that works.

Well, I never needed quilt before, so I just made a chmod a+x after applying the content of the patch file to the kernel sources.

I am saying to use git, not quilt, for the patches.  You will only see
the permissions error if you only use quilt, right?

And how do you apply the patches?  Or are you using the linux-stable-rc
kernel tree?

I cloned Linus repository over a year ago, added the stable (yours) as a remote repo and do since that time:

as common user:

	cd ~/devel/linux/ ; git diff v4.14.9..v4.14.10 | (cd /usr/src/linux && sudo patch -p1) 

and as root:
	cd /usr/src/linux-4.x && time make -j4 && make modules_install && make install && rm -f /boot/*.old && grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

and this yields into:

  LD       /usr/src/linux-4.x/tools/objtool/objtool-in.o
make[2]: execvp: ./sync-check.sh: Permission denied
make[2]: *** [Makefile:49: /usr/src/linux-4.x/tools/objtool/objtool] Error 127

make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
  CHK     include/generated/asm-offsets.h
  UPD     include/generated/asm-offsets.h
  CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh


What helped is a :

	chmod u+x ./tools/objtool/sync-check.sh

Which exact repo of "mine" did you use here?

There was no 4.14.10 in my repo at the time, so how did this get created?

Odd, oh well, 4.14.10 is now out, hopefully you do not have to do this
by hand anymore.

This did not have the 4.14.10-rc tree in it, but now, yes, that will
show up.

Be careful with 'patch', odds are it is not keeping the permissions that
git is telling it to use.

good luck!

Yep, I tend to blame "patch" here too in the moment.
