you don't need to use the patches unless you want to try compiling
static instead of modules.  You are a lot better off compiling the
modules from the *-kernel directories. (configure --kernel_src=...;make)

I cannot speak for the cman patch, but I know I've been a bit lazy
keeping the gulm patch uptodate with the code in the gfs-kernel/src/gulm
(others might have been better.)

So try building the module that way.  If you still really want to use a
kernel patch, peek inside the makefile.  There are rules for making the
patch if you put the kernel source in the right place.
