There's no need for that, you can use the patch from Debian
and add it to the 'patches' field of 'util-linux'.

It's odd though that util-linux fails to build for you even
though https://bordeaux.guix..gnu.org has a substitute:

$ guix weather util-linux --system=aarch64-linux
> [...]

Something else that's odd: there's only one hit for
$ grep -rF 'swap area needs to be at least ' | grep -F page
: the file tests/expected/misc/swaplabel.err.  So how is mkswap
supposed to produce the message "mkswap: error: swap area needs to be
at least 10 pages' in the first place?

Greetings,
Maxime
