[PATCH] wireless/airo: minimal WPA awareness



Running Linux 2.6.17-rc3-mm1 which has this patch included I get this
interesting message:
airo(eth0): WPA unsupported (only firmware versions 5.30.17 and greater
support WPA.  Detected 5.30.17)

airo_test_wpa_capable assumes that the softSubVer part of the firmware
version number is coded in BCD. Apparently, that's not true.
I have firmware version 5.30.17 and cap_rid.softSubVer is 0x11==17.
