Hi, I've been attempting to build this into the 3.14.8 kernel, since bug
1283938 is preventing me from using suspend on even 3.16
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1283938). However,
when I run `make` I get the error below. Please know that I'm
comfortable with git, patches, and compiling from source, but know
little about the linux kernel itself. Is there some other patch or
dependency that would get this to work against 3.14.8?

The error:
```

drivers/hid/hid-rmi.c:168:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘hid_hw_raw_request’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
