if you are editing the ebuild in a local repo, put your patch in the
files/ directory. If you want to conditionally patch for kernel 4.7,
you can test this with "kernel_is" from the linux-info eclass. In that
conditional block, epatch "${FILESDIR}/nameofyourfile.patch".
Alternatively, use https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki//etc/portage/patches to
guide you on adding the patch to the proper place to have the ebuild
automatically patch (without need for an local repo) for you
(unconditionally wrt kernel version)
