The instructions shouldn't need much updating, things haven't changed all
that much.  Take a stab at it, post instructions once you have it working.
:)

(When I last tried it on a 4.7 box, it did require a bit of tweaking to
the patch, but it wasn't too major.  The big issue was to not repeatedly
apply the patch, as patch is dumb, and it kept appending the newly added
stack protector patch file to itself each time.  That confused me greatly
at the time.)
