Push the patch upstream?
I'm very new to looking at ffmpeg code. Could this NEON patch not be pushed upstream to videolan/x265 repo?
Yes it could, in fact it was merged at the bitbucket repository a few months ago, but not is not in any release versions yet they also broke multi-lib building while doing it.
Sadly for some reason none of the mirrors have been updated in ages Github's videolan/x265 is a year out of date. the Mercurial repo at hg.videolan.org is 6 months out of date.
If you change to the x265_from_master branch you can build from the bitbucket repo, but that requires quite a decent patch itself and that patch conflicts with other proposed patches that may be even faster than the apple patch. It's all in a bit of a mess ATM.
