Re. #24, I was able to get the driver to compile, but not actually work, by adding your changes and additionally changing
__vlan_hwaccel_put_tag(skb, vid)
to
__vlan_hwaccel_put_tag(skb, htons(ETH_P_8021Q), vid);

I saw that they used the same value in fixing the Realtek driver here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/r8168/+bug/1216906

The constant they use is defined in this block: http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/include/if_ether.h#L35

Admittedly I have no idea what that addition means or does, I'm just stabbing in the dark. And it obviously didn't work. But maybe it'll put someone on the right path.

I also tried contacting the author of the driver for guidance but no doubt he's moved on to other things by now.
