fw_rev_major and fw_rev_minor are defined as int.
Use %d to print them.

Hmm ... I don't think that a negative version number makes much sense.
Turns out inb() returns a char on some architectures, meaning it is signed,
meaning it _could_ return a negative number if the version number is 128
or above. I don't want to risk us reporting version number -128.-110 just
to make compilers happy.

send_command uses inb_p to read single bytes.

The signature of inb_p is
u8 inb_p(unsigned long addr)

So fw_rev_major and fw_rev_minor should always be
in the range of 0..255.

I couldn't have said this better myself :-) version info is indeed to be consider as an unsigned int.

Kind regards,
Wim.
