..about missing symbols
How would I compile it against that module? Is there a way to update https://github.com/nazar-pc/lede-rtl8814au to compile it that way?
I haven't done anything with the rtl8812/4, but you could do something like the acx-mac80211, mt76 or mwlwifi package.
https://github.com/lede-project/source/blob/master/package/kernel/acx-mac80211/Makefile
I've added NOSTDINC_FLAGS as following:

Unfortunately, now it fails to compile:

I'm not a kernel developer, not even C developer, just trying to make this thing to work. Could you take a closer look at what is going wrong here?
That doesn't look good. The expected identifier before '(' token error in this place is likely related to a error in one of the header files. This is usually tricky to trace down.
In any case, Hauke just updated the compat-wireless / backport package based on 4.14-rc2.
I'm on master branch and just pulled all of the recent changes. I'm still getting the same error when trying to load compiled module and the same compilation errors with NOSTDINC_FLAGS.
Do you know LEDE kernel developer whom can I ask for help here. I'm clearly not capable of handling this myself.
You could ask hauke (I don't think he has a forum account thought?).
He made a package for the out-of-tree rtl8189es driver, that he uploaded to his repository:
https://git.lede-project.org/?p=lede/hauke/staging.git;a=commit;h=239f9cdc685088454dccc93888c9ba76a1660c27
you can see, that he had to patch the sources for the driver quite a bit to get it to compile.
And every new release might break something, so it will need constant updates as well.
That was extremely helpful, thanks! I've looked at code there and updated my fork and now it builds against mac80211 from backport.
After some more tweaks (and updates to driver's sources) I've got something:
[ 4181.211970] RTL871X: module init start

[ 4181.212943] usbcore: registered new interface driver rtl8814au
[ 4181.213467] RTL871X: module init ret=0So driver compiles against LEDE's master branch and loads fine.
It scans networks without issues, but doesn't yet want to work in AP mode for whatever reason:

[ 429.972730] RTL871X: cfg80211_rtw_add_virtual_intf ndev: (null), ret:-19@nazar-pc (or others)- can your current git repository (your fork) just copy the downloaded rtl8814au driver source to packages/kernel and compile it into the image - and does it work (though as a client)?
EDIT:
Compile firmware with your driver, install firmware, connect my dongle rtl8814au to USB3 (WNDR4700) and...

...what next ?
Pleas instruction "step by step"
Are you compiling it for LEDE? If not, try proper DKMS version for desktops instead: https://github.com/nazar-pc/RTL8814AU
For LEDE I've only tested with upstream master branch, but didn't succeed with use much besides being able to search for available APs under some circumstances.
So no, I didn't succeed using it as client on LEDE, but it does work with DKMS driver under my Ubuntu 17.04 x64 with the same performance as Windows driver from Realtek.
no - i compile and install LEDE master with this driver:
Luci view only "Generic MAC80211 802.11abg (radio2)" (???) interface...unfortunately client mode not connected (80MHz ac, 5 GHz)...
###############
To my ubuntu-16.04.3 (kernel hwe: 4.10.0-35) work fine (very fine to linux; windows oryginal driver to w10 very...shit - hehe) use this dkms driver:
It changes to abgnac when you try to scan for networks (if booted with disabled interface in UI), but otherwise I see exactly the same behavior - can't run in AP mode, can't connect in client mode.
I've reported this issue to the person that knows much more than me here: https://github.com/ulli-kroll/rtl8814au/issues/5
Hopefully he'll find some time to look at it soon. Looks like there is some fundamental issue after which driver refuses to create virtual interfaces and you can't really do anything about it:(

Anyway thank you for any concrete progress in the very creation of the installing and building driver, who, as I also have a quiet hope, will soon start working "full mouth" under LEDE.
Hey guys some update about add AP mode on RTL8814AU
This approach is crazy (as hell ?)
Looking trough the code I have not just to add AP mode functionality into
cfg80211_rtw_add_virtual_intf()
including open/close for AP mode, which I can be borrowed form
rtw_cfg80211_add_monitor_if()
There is (maybe) also some code missing to use this "virtual" interface.
i.e. send the right information Elements (for SSID HT/VHT capabilities),
There is absolutely no "sample" code I can (re)use here.
The same applies on RTL8821AU which uses v5.1.5.
No AP mode at all 
and no STA mode in cfg80211.
Unfortunately I didn't test the drivers with cfg80211
So I've decided to reactivate my RTL8821AU work, with my USB3 issue to test.
Which shows some interesting findings.

you see an endless loop
yup, i pulled last night and failed to compile but with a small patch i worked up. i got it back up and running again. here is the patch (please dont expect this to patch, my driver isn't stock).
add this one the ones you are currently using if you pull trunk lately and it fails on cfg80211_roamed having the wrong arguments.

edit: glad to see you back here @ElektromAn 
edit two (what this patch is for 4.12) see here:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/diff/include/net/cfg80211.h?h=v4.12.6&id=29ce6ecbb83c9185d76e3a7c340c9702d2a54961 and https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9714419/
edit three (similar to this): https://github.com/Mange/rtl8192eu-linux-driver/pull/47 also they seem to have done something else here wiphy->max_sched_scan_reqs = 1; going to check this out. most likely something i missed..
@Cutepally
I will take the patch, if you want to demand on your authorship please to a pull request as @nazar-pc has done it.
If this applies (needed) I will use this patch on rtl8821au also.
Currently I do a check on rtl8821au before I do any push on my repositories.
I've made some small mistakes in designing the switch to mac80211, which causes me to tip on my own toes.
And no there is actually no mac80211 support, I'm far away from testing
ah, yeah.. i just looked at his repo and see it in there cool! its also required for rtl8812au in trunk currently.
you'll have to actually drop the nevermind this part, his LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(4,12,0) check maybe though because, at least for my router, is 4.4.91 current and required here (for LEDE building of course)activate_all_backport_code.patch already doing it, great !
thanks for the update though, i know how much it would take to get this where most want it. i personally couldn't get it there nor do i really have the time to so. it's sad but at least we know that it can run under LEDE with hostapd or udhcpc, and wpa_supplicant
agreed. lol
but again thanks the update. my post above was much the same just an update because i ran into an issue and wanted to share. i hadn't checked out @nazar-pc repo just then but it's in there too, which is great.
have a nice day 
edit: i read more and seen the link to hauke's repo, thanks for that! so im going to go with his patch https://git.lede-project.org/?p=lede/hauke/staging.git;a=commit;h=239f9cdc685088454dccc93888c9ba76a1660c27
