[OE-core] How to force patch application

[Stephen Arnold]

Not sure if there's an easy way with quilt (check the quilt options) but a
relatively easy way would be to use your own patch routine (essentially
anything you want).  One thing you could do is disable the normal patch
application (add ";patch=0" to the end of the patch line in SRC_URI) and
then use your own do_patch to force it (if that's really what you want to
do).  I guess I would ask "why?" and if it were me I'd just reroll the
patch and fix it.  But I don't know what the real problem is, so...
