* Create drivers/net/wireless/acx subdirectory inside
your kernel tree.
* BTW, if your kernel has drivers/net/wireless/tiacx directory,
you already may have acx driver (some different version).
Decide which one do you want.
* Unpack tarball into drivers/net/wireless/acx directory.
* Add a line to drivers/net/wireless/Makefile:
obj-m += acx/
* Build your modules as usual (perhaps "make modules modules_install").

I followed the steps and they worked out.
Please find the module attached. Disclaimer: try at your own risk!

Good luck!

You should not supply firmware_dir= parameter anymore. Driver will try
to load the following images via hotplug (not from /usr/share/acx
directory as older driver did, hotplug firmware directory location
varies for different distros, try /lib/firmware or
/usr/lib/hotplug/firmware):
