Without the primer, the repaired areas will absorb paint differently from the rest of the wall creating an inconsistent finish. Better results come from priming the wall, especially the entire wall.

Need to Prime??
Is there a need to prime walls if I am just painting over a white wall that has been patched with compound in a few areas, or can I just paint the walls?

The repairs need to be primed! IF the repairs are minor you can cheat by first applying a coat of paint over the repairs and then painting the wall.
It usually isn't necesarry to prime the entire wall unless repairs are extensive or big color change.
