This code is based on an old driver (v4.2.2); can you upgrade it to be based on v4.3.2?

I see from your readme that:

This is a fork of the Realtek 802.11ac (rtl8812au) v4.2.2 (7502.20130507)

However, v4.3.2 has been available, apparently, since 2014-04-11. Can you update this repo to use that later driver? Here's a copy of it that came on my Alfa AWUS036AC driver CD I bought recently: https://github.com/ElectricRCAircraftGuy/AlfaWiFiAdapterSoftware/blob/master/ALFA_Driver_DVD_v3.0/driver/Linux_driver/AWUS036AC/AWUS036AC_036EAC_ACH_linux_v4.3.2_11100.20140411.tar

Note, when I run make, here's the build error output, which led me to search until I landed on your repo here. Apparently this driver is only functional with old Linux kernels or something, as I'm sure you are aware.
