The referenced bug is about pulling in some up-to-date drivers.

Kernel module authors who need to work with many different kernel
versions deal with renames like this by using the KERNEL_VERSION macros
to determine which wrappers/stubs/whatever to include in a particular
build. However, because of this above change, which wasn't included in
upstream kernels until 3.14 (while Trusty is 3.13(+extra magic)) this
won't work.

I propose you add a compatibility macro. Luckily, it's a straight
rename, so this should be simple enough.
