A few remarks, but otherwise:

If you change other places to use git_get_feature, then you should
change it too. I'm not sure if it is worth it...

I think it would be better to always use "patches" here, as it is
series of patches by design, only by accident it is one commit long.

I wonder if it would make sense to pass

   href(..., hash_parent => $commitlist[-1]{'id'}, ...)

here. But I think having separate "patches" action, with intent being
displaying series of patches, is a better solution. This way you can
see in URL and in the page title (thus also in window title, or in
bookmark name) if it is single patch or patch series (perhaps consisting
of single patch).

Here using gitweb_check_feature makes perfect sense.

gitweb_check_feature or gitweb_get_feature?...

Nice reusing $patch_max in different way, as $have_patch if $format is
'html', and as limiter ($patch_max) if $format is 'patch'/'patches'

Same comment as for git_log...
