Patching doesn't work with solution components with unmanaged customization. A patch fails to overwrite these unmanaged customization with changes defined in patch until solution upgrade. Even after the solution upgrade with overwrite unmanaged customizations this solution component remains to have an entry in active solution hence this solution component shall exhibit the same behavior for subsequent solution patching as well. The only permanent solution is to create a new managed solution component in place of this and refer it at all places required then remove the old one. Before opting for patching as means of your solution development ensure before hand that you do not have any unmanaged customization which would participate in patches to avoid solution upgrades after every patch import.
