Looks like the patch is corrupted.

Applying: hwmon: add driver for ARCTIC Fan Controller
error: corrupt patch at line 587
error: could not build fake ancestor
Patch failed at 0001 hwmon: add driver for ARCTIC Fan Controller

I can not figure out what is wrong, but both git and patch report that it is
corrupted. Please fix and resend.

Thanks,
