With char becoming unsigned by default, and with `char` alone being
ambiguous and based on architecture, we get a warning when assigning the
unchecked output of hex_to_bin() to that unsigned char. Mark `key` as a
`u8`, which matches the struct's type, and then check each call to
hex_to_bin() before casting.

That is about the crappiest loop I've seen.
I was just going to point out that the (u8) casts aren't needed.
Something like:
	for (i = 0, buf = data->wbuffer + j; i < 16; i++, buf += 3) {
		int val;
		if (!buf[0] || !buf[1])
			break;
		val = hex_to_bin(buf[0]) | hex_to_bin(buf[1]) << 8;
		if (val < 0) {
			airo_print_err(ai->dev->name, "WebKey passed invalid key hex");
			return;
		}
		key[i] = val;
		if (!buf[2])
			break;
	}

Although there should be a check for buf[2] being valid.
Any I worry about exactly what happens if there aren't 16 full bytes.

	David

buf[2] isn't checked. Presumably it's a space or something. Your <<8
also isn't right; this is a hex char. Anyway, I think I'd rather
minimize this delta and leave this patch as-is.
