We appreciate your interest in the project! As I recall, the patches were just something for some SiS chipset support in older LinuxBIOS versions (freebios1). Since then, LinuxBIOS has advanced to include more generic chipset support that does not require kernel patches.
The current LinuxBIOS (freebios2) will work without patches to your kernel.
