Either summarise the problem completely or simply attach the entire build log. The patch applies fine here and you didn't provide a complete build.log and you use an unknown overlay, so anything could be happening here.
Yes, it was to late the night for me writing the bug. But thanks to the Maintainer and the new patch mate-applets/files/mate-applets-1.22.0-cpupower.patch which solves the issue for me
