I've pushed the fix, closing the bug now.

  commit 208a3cb05f4d954abc9dd6c8cd858ef2bedd7cb4
  Date:   Tue Aug 22 15:57:01 2017 +0200

  Fix 'diff-goto-source' when buffer is narrowed (Bug#21262)

  * lisp/vc/diff-mode.el (diff-find-file-name): Save the current
  narrowing, and widen the buffer before searching for the name of the
  file corresponding to the diff.

  With thanks to Noam Postavsky.

[Message part 4 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi. This bug has been there since at least emacs23 it seems like. To
reproduce:

1. emacs -Q

2. Open any patch file that has hunks from more than one file in it. For
instance, the attached patch file works, but it really doesn't matter

3. Narrow to just the second file's diffs. For instance: M-N M-N C-SPC
C-> C-x n n SPC (last SPC to confirm the narrowing)

4. Try to see the source of the hunk. Move the point to the guts of the
hunk, and M-enter. Emacs asks for the directory where the sources live.
In the process, it changes the narrowing to the wrong hunk. This is
wrong. The narrowing shouldn't change.

5. If we cancel with C-g, the wrong narrowing persists
