Right. You also need to compile the kernel. Usually I pluck the
/boot/config-my-exisitng-kernel-vresion and put it in the linux
directory as .config.

Note that you had been using --dry-run which means that the changes
did NOT go in effect.

Attaching the full part thanks to Martin Cerveny <martin@xxxxxxxxx>
doing it in another thread (about the Nvidia and CUDA).

You basically want those changes that the diff file has.

After the patching, if you run git diff you should see a similar
result to what the attached patch had.

Then just do 'make -j3141567891238901948248092840932480932; sudo make 
modules_install; sudo make
install;sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg' and reboot the new
kernel.

P.S.
No need to do the -j31415.. It should be just the amount of CPUs
you have.
