airo cards with firmware versions of 5.30.17 and higher support WPA.
This patch recognizes WPA-capable firmware versions and adds support for
retrieving the WPA and RSN information elements from the card's scan
results. The JOB and FLAG fields are now independent, since there was
no space left in the FLAG field for FLAG_WPA_CAPABLE.

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.
