I see no sign of the patch being applied in the build log; I see it in the source diff but it would not be applied at build-time since it is in the wrong place.

https://launchpad.net/~kip/+archive/ubuntu/linux-kernel-6.8.0/+files/linux_6.8.0-31.31_6.8.0-35.35ubuntu1+kip1.diff.gz

Shows a patch file at:

--- linux-6.8.0.orig/patches/fix-218916.patch
+++ linux-6.8.0/patches/fix-218916.patch

but no sign of it being applied in the tree.

Ubuntu kernel development flow is different to Debian; it's more like mainline with changes committed directly in the kernel tree. On upload a source diff is then generated between mainline and the Ubuntu tree to create the usual Debianised orig.tar.gz/diff.gz packages that the buildd's use.
