Thank you all, using "b4" to extract the mbox and "git am" to apply on
target repo was helpful. Sharing steps;

   - Get message ID from the email posted on KML with patch/es


   - Clone linux repo, git clone git://
   git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git


   - Get mbox of your KML patches;
      - yum install b4
      - b4 am <email-message-id> /*Generate mbox id at end, starting with
      "git am" command*/
      - git am ./<b4-generated-mbx-id>.mbx /*Copy paste the command after
      your b4 am completed succesfully*/
      - It will apply all the patches in the series on your local linux
      repository

 cheers.
