just tried with linux 4.9.16; similar error in ./os/linux/rt_linux.c:1420:11: error: 'struct net_device' has no member named 'wireless_handlers' pNetDev->wireless_handlers = pDevOpHook->iw_handler; (up to typos, since copied by hand)

I fixed that error by enabling CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT in the kernel. You cannot enable it directly though, you have to enable some wireless module which pulls CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT in. The module compiles now.
