Two things:
The patch that I initially downloaded from Mingo's site had line
breaks between what should have been wrapped lines. This caused
the patch to fail much like what you are describing. I am not
sure where or how the bogus line breaks were introduced.
I downloaded the patch again last night and it did apply cleanly
to a pristine 2.2.14 source tree.
The patch I downloaded was "raid-2.2.14-B1".
