Hmm ... seems to work for me.

Applied your 3 kernel.spec changes and then did:

rpmbuild -bp kernel.spec

to build the patched kernel ... I see the following in the log:

+ case "$patch" in
+ patch -p1 -F1 -s
+ ApplyPatch scarlett.patch
+ local patch=scarlett.patch
+ shift
+ '[' '!' -f /root/rpmbuild/SOURCES/scarlett.patch ']'
Patch74912: scarlett.patch

so it did apply AFAICT.  I'm assuming you did put the patch in

~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/scarlett.patch
