If you redirect the output of your make-kpkg command line to a file, you can
examine the file. There will be messages to let you know whether or not the
patches were applied.

When you install the kernel .deb, the file /boot/patches-<kernel_name> has
the names of all patches that were applied.
 
I would suggest changing the ownership of your /usr/src/kernel-patches tree
to your_user_name.src:

bash:/usr/src# chown -R christophe.src kernel-patches
