patch file

A little while back, I ran into a problem compiling buildroot on an older
Ubuntu (9.xx I think), where patch was attempting to perform Perforce source
control operations.  We had to fix this by adding -g0 to the patch script.  I
think this may not be a problem on newer distributions, but perhaps it would be
good to ensure that patch doesn't attempt such ops in the future by using the
-g0.

The line that we fixed is in apply-patches.sh, but I noticed that there is also
a patch command in grub.mk too.  I have attached a patch for both.
