[SOLVED] Can't patch kernel

I'm using linux-lqx from AUR and I'm patching it with reiser4 support. I'm after some updates and never had any problem, I was just adding

patch -p1 -i /path/to/patch

after Liquorix' patchset and it was fine. It's still 3.12.x kernel so patch should be valid. Instead, it prompts:

patch unexpectedly ends in middle of line
patch: **** Only garbage was found in the patch input.
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...
==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build linux-lqx.

Am I doing something wrong, forgot something?

Edit: I can't build this package even without patch so it's not the issue. I think I know why, unrelated to original problem.
