[Buildroot] Custom kernal patch not being run

[buildrootcharles]

Thanks Thomas, I just tried that command and it still does not implement my patch. When I execute the command "make linux-dirclean linux" I see text that says ">>> linux custom Download additional patches" is this supposed to indicate it found my patch? I'm guessing that I have the patch file named wrong as I have read it needs to match exactly what is trying to be patched but I don't know if it should be named linux-custom (that's the folder name in output->build->) should it be named the same as the custom kernel tarball (linux-3.10.4-July302014)?

linux-rebuild will not reapply patches.
Try
make linux-dirclean linux
