No #entity in field collection form in some cases [#1900374]

I have field collection with only file fields. You can investigate - in this case $form won't contain #entity property which is necessary for altering it. So I've created small patch.

I wasn't able to duplicate this with the latest repository version of field collections and 7.x-2.0-alpha3 of file_entity. I made a node with a field collection that had a file field and I was able to change the file in it. It is an old issue so I believe it is not a problem now, but if I am wrong please reopen with more details about how to reproduce.

I have a node with a field of field_collection type. When I am trying to edit this field I have no $form['#entity] property. And for me (and obviously it can be pretty common case) I want to get access to field_collection_item which is being edited.

The 6 year old patch in #3 to field_collection.pages.inc does not apply to the latest field_collection 7.x-1.x-dev and if still relevant needs a reroll.

Checking patch field_collection.pages.inc...
error: while searching for:

  field_attach_form('field_collection_item', $field_collection_item, $form, $form_state);

  $form['actions'] = array('#type' => 'actions', '#weight' => 50);
  $form['actions']['submit'] = array(
    '#type' => 'submit',
