The 'patch-3.9.1.bz2' is dedicated to patch the *3.9.0* kernel to become a 3.9.1 kernel. If you start with a *3.9.1* kernel all these patches from the 'patch-3.9.1.bz2' archive are already present in the source tree. That is the meaning of the "Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!" message.
