I'm not so good at linux especially in kernel compiling, but i got it working by downloading kernel sources, and then applyed that patch to kernel and at menuconfig , enabled lirc_bbb. Hope it clears things up. Also, i have not tested it with latest kernels. When i get some time, i'll try to compile it again/test and make some sort of tutorial or so...
Ps. You are not first person who asks about "how to get it working" Currently i have so limited time that i can't even get to computer, but i'll start looking at it in few days. (Also, i know my "english" is not good, but i hope you get the point, that i wanted to say...)
