The generic process I use is:

1. Find out what upstream commit made the patch not apply anymore
2. Find out whether the upstream commit fixed what the patch is intending to fix

If yes, then the patch can be safely removed.
If no, then the patch needs to be updated to apply again.
If partially, then you need to find out how to integrate the missing
parts into the changed upstream code, and create a new patch based on
this.

For updating kernel patches see <http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/devel/patches>

For finding out what broke it I usually use
<http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git>, but if
you skip several kernel versions it might be faster to create a local
clone and work on that one.
