Sorry if this is a basic question.
How do i take patches from e-mail?

I find wikipedia surprisingly good as a starting point for questions like that.
eg.
I am trying to write a memory based file system. The file system is
intended to create files/directories and write their contents only on
pages. For this I have used the function grab_cache_page() function to
get a new locked page in case the page does not exists in the radix
tree of the inode.

I am trying to compile a kernel module which uses the device mapper header

these files are present under drivers/md directory.
When I try to build the module, it gives error for these header files
