I don't have much time and before I do any backporting, I want to get the driver into a state where it will be merged into mainline linux. There is one problem report where the touchpad is broken after suspend/resume which needs to be fixed first, that's why I was asking here in the first place.

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BuildYourOwnKernel should contain all required information to get the sources, shouldn't it? Eithe apt-get source with your kernel version, or if you pull from the git repo, you'd probably need to switch into some "v3.17.1" branch or something like that.

Porting should not be difficult, you need to backport http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-input/msg33508.html first, and you might want to patch in https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/drivers/input/serio/i8042-x86ia64io.h?id=9ff84a17302aeb8913ff244ecc0d8f9d219fecb5 as well just for the sake of completeness.
