Yes, you have to checkout the HEAD.

Hmm, I think you talk about your subject question here, right ? Now, to patch 
your own U-Boot tree do:

1.) Save even this email attachment includes the patch you want
    (say to file: u-boot-feature.patch).
2.) Go into your U-Boot tree and call the "patch" command line tool:

    > cd u-boot
    > patch -p1 < replace_this_with_your_path_to/u-boot-feature.patch
