Hi guys! I make it!

# apt-get install mlton-runtime-arm-linux-gnueabi
# cd /usr/src/linux-source-3.2/
# cp /boot/config-3.2.0-3-kirkwood .config
# cp /usr/src/linux-headers-3.2.0-3-kirkwood/Module.symvers ./
# ln -s /usr/bin/ar /usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-ar
# ln -s /usr/bin/ld /usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-ld
# ln -s /usr/bin/objdump /usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-objdump
# make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- menuconfig

Device Drivers  --->
   Staging drivers  --->
      (M) RealTek RTL8712U (RTL8192SU) Wireless LAN NIC driver

# make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- modules_prepare
# make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- M=drivers/staging/rtl8712/
# mkdir /lib/modules/3.2.0-3-kirkwood/kernel/drivers/staging/rtl8712
# cp drivers/staging/rtl8712/r8712u.ko
/lib/modules/3.2.0-3-kirkwood/kernel/drivers/staging/rtl8712/
# depmod -a
# modprobe r8712u

and iwconfig show me wlan0 interface!

Will "drivers/staging" be added to official release of debian-armel kernel?
