This patch is clearly not formatted according to the standard format
and it does not apply with 'git am'.

Using 'git format-patch' and 'git send-email' is *very* recommended as
it will take care of all the formatting for you. Maintainers and
anybody interested in your patch will be able to apply it easily.

All the info you need are at
https://docs.kernel.org/process/submitting-patches.html

Apparently you are not using git to track your changes, so I recommend
using it to have all the git utilities available.

Best regards,
Luca
