Recompile the kernel after applying a patch in Ubuntu.

I have applied a patch using this command:
Code:
patch -p1 < (file)

then I did git commit -a.

Now I want to recompile the kernel for making this patch live.

Should I use

Code:
make oldconfig

or

Code:
make localmodconfig

After that,
Code:
make -j$(grep -c "processor" /proc/cpuinfo)
sudo make modules_install install

So my question is how to use make command here? Should I use make localmodconfig or make oldconfig?
