The driver version that is included in the kernel (and has been patched a bit I'm sure since it's been in there a while) is version 2.09. The latest version (3.08 beta) can be obtained from:
the easiest way is to get diff -u 2.09 3.08 and port it by hand, at least I

Convert to pci probing and in-kernel firmware loading :). The code is big mess
due to ifdefs and much unneeded material, it's likely impossible to say this is
