I haven't got a chance to look at your patch. But can share my experience
about copyright assignment :)

Here are the steps I took and the process was smooth:
- Email FSF at assign@gnu.org requesting to initiate the copyright
assignment process.
- They will send you a 4 or 5 question questionnaire by email.
- You reply that via email.
- Then you get a format of disclosure that needs to be signed by your
school or employer.
- I did not face any problem there, the employer sent me the signed letter
in pdf form in 2 days.
- I was supposed to snail mail the physical signed copy to FSF but I didn't
have one and they were fine with the scanned signed letter pdf I emailed
them. I believe that is fine in US. But the person responding to you from
assign@gnu.org will guide you correctly.
- Done!

It took a couple of days, but it was all email transactions for me.
