Oops, read failure on my part. You should be able to open the Makefile and find the KERNELRELEASE= line. Look at the variables and see what's there. I suspect you may find that EXTRAVERSION has been modified by your previous kernel patch. Since patch didn't find what it expected (a blank entry for EXTRAVERSION) it wouldn't apply the hunk. You may want to add "-xfs" at the end of whatever's already there, or not. Your choice. This stuff is purely cosmetic, to allow you to label your own kernel in whatever way you please. In short, this should not harm the compile. Go for it.
