Copy the text from the line:
diff -Nru a/drivers/ide/via82cxxx.c b/drivers/ide/via82cxxx.c
to just before the row of equals signs. Paste in a file, which I'll call
'vt8235.diff'.
Change directory to your linux source tree:
cd /usr/src/linux
Run patch, using -p1 to remove the a/ from the paths in the vt8235.diff
file.
cat vt8235.diff | patch -p1
Compile away!
