You seem to have tried applying it to this commit:

Merge tag 'char-misc-5.4-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc

Pull char/misc driver updates from Greg KH:

so of it failed because at that time Linus' tree did not have the
necessary input changes. I am not sure why you decided to apply the
patch to this particular commit.

Thanks.
