you missed the delimiter here:

Without it, I get:

[acme@jouet linux]$ am /wb/1.patch 
Applying: tools lib traceevent: Fix prev/next_prio for deadline tasks
fatal: patch with only garbage at line 3
Patch failed at 0001 tools lib traceevent: Fix prev/next_prio for deadline tasks
The copy of the patch that failed is found in: .git/rebase-apply/patch
When you have resolved this problem, run "git am --continue".
If you prefer to skip this patch, run "git am --skip" instead.
To restore the original branch and stop patching, run "git am --abort".
[acme@jouet linux]$ git am --abort

I added it manually and applied, please consider using 'git format-patch' next time :-)
