hm, this doesnt apply:

 Hunk #3 FAILED at 426.
 Hunk #4 succeeded at 413 (offset -22 lines).
 1 out of 4 hunks FAILED -- rejects in file arch/x86/mm/fault_32.c
 patching file arch/x86/mm/fault_64.c
 Hunk #3 FAILED at 476.
 Hunk #4 succeeded at 475 (offset -10 lines).
 1 out of 4 hunks FAILED -- rejects in file arch/x86/mm/fault_64.c

could you double-check x86.git#mm, perhaps we are out of sync with a
