For me, that portion of the patch failed because I had edited the
following line of the Makefile (you may have, too, which is probably
what caused the patch to fail).
Also, I made the "fs/msdos" directory by hand because the patch didn't
make it (dunno why; it tried to make other dirs). This allowed the
patch to go in cleanly (didn't use -p0).
