Hello,

I tried applying it with ' git am ' and it was giving me this error:

fatal: corrupt patch at line XX

I think this was produced because of running ./scripts/cleanfile on the patch .
I was using this to fix trailing whitespaces . So, I used a different
method to remove them and didn't get that error.

But now when I run 'git am' I get a different error:

error: patch failed:
drivers/staging/vc04_services/bcm2835-audio/bcm2835-ctl.c:105

Why am I getting this error ?

Regards,
Srishti
