Exactly, this causes the error you reported.
But I guess I should have rather used
diff -uNrp kernel-2.6.x.orig/linux-2.6.24.i686
kernel-2.6.x.new/linux-2.6.24-i686 >

No, it has to be:
diff -uNrp linux-2.6.24.i686.orig linux-2.6.24-i686.new
When you run rpmbuild -bp it creates an extra level, but that's
done because this is how RPMs are done. But patches we apply are
compatible with upstream format, that's why there's a mismatch.
