I understand this one because its in a patch file, but these are just e-mails.

I have an asus eepc 1000 with a custom kernel from fedora forums and wanted to build my own and tinker a bit more. Currently I'm at a 18s boot time (to gdm)! o_0
Looking at gregkh's patch I assume the other three would start at the diff line. Is that correct?

I just realized those patches have "[at] redhat [dot] com" on them..

Omit the file name and let patch read stdin, paste the patch portion of the mails, and ctrl-D (twice)?
(For some reason, patch - and only patch - seems to eat the first ctrl-D.)

Since those mails were formatted by 'git format-patch' and have no intrusive characters, you could probably just feed the whole mail to patch.
patch -p1 < the_mail
