The airo.c shows the usage of hexadecimal and binary form:
/* Test for WPA support */
/* Only firmware versions 5.30.17 or better can do WPA */
if (le16_to_cpu(cap_rid.softVer) > 0x530
|| (le16_to_cpu(cap_rid.softVer) == 0x530
&& le16_to_cpu(cap_rid.softSubVer) >= 17)) {
airo_print_info(ai->dev->name, "WPA supported.");
