That patch won't apply. The patch should be generated from the root
directory, and include the full path of the files you're modifying, so
that the patch can be applied from the root directory of the kernel
tree. i.e. the paths should be of the form
a/drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/alx/main.c
The easiest way to create patches that apply properly is to use the
git tree and the `git format-patch` tool.
Thanks,
