Start with:  /usr/src/linux/Documentation/SubmittingPatches ...

For a single file,

    diff -u old.c new.c > my.patch

and you can test it on a new kernel by

    patch -p0 < my.patch

or revert it by

    patch -p0 -R < my.patch

It's also good practice to review patches to make sure you're only
changing what you intended to change.  When you find there's some
extra change, it's often easy to edit the patch file to delete that chunk
of the diff ... but "patch -p0 --dry-run < my.patch" to be sure you didn't
corrupt the patchfile.
