This file doesn't exist(404). While I'm aware that the mirroring
probably hasn't caught up yet, the URL seems to have multiple issues
besides just that.

http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.0/ doesn't exist, there doesn't
appear to be a symlink from v4.x to v4.0 (imho for good reasons), while
such a smylink did exist for v3.x --> v3.0.

So fixing the obvious problem and adapting the URL to
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/stable-review/patch-4.0.2-rc1.gz
doesn't work either, as there is no "stable-review" directory under
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/ yet (which probably should be
created).

Your previous, "[PATCH 4.0 0/7] 4.0.1-stable review"[1], mail referenced
kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.0/stable-review/patch-4.0.1-rc1.gz
which does exist. However patch-4.0.2-rc1.gz is still missing there or
at the more sensible location at
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/stable-review/patch-4.0.2-rc1.gz

Given that the patch files of the other stable-review patches posted
today are already available[2], I assume that it's not just a problem with
the mirroring.
