For the latest rc kernel release, (4.12-rc1), upstream has decided to change the way the patch is distributed. The patch now resides in a git repository and is no longer compressed.
Some discussion can be found here[1] if one is interested. They could reverse this decision. This patch handles the change for rc kernels >= 4.12.
