Comment (by jdemeyer):

 Following up on [comment:2]: it's very useful to support an empty set of
 patches. For example, when upgrading a package, it can happen that all
 patches need to be removed. You don't want that to break the build. That
 is also the reason why many packages have code to apply patches when they
 don't have patches. I would not remove such code since it also easily
 adding a new patch.
