We don't take patches via pull requests (that repo is a mirror for convenience and should have PRs disabled), but patches on the openembedded-core mailing list.
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/Commit_Patch_Message_Guidelines has details as to the required patch formatting. Summary: Commit message should be of the form 'recipe: summary'. The patch you're adding also needs a summary explaining what it does, an Upstream-Status value (Pending I guess, as upstream is dead we can't submit it) and your Signed-off-by.
