[PATCH 3/3] media: rtl28xxu: fix zero-length control request

From: Johan Hovold
Date: Mon May 24 2021 - 07:10:00 EST


The direction of the pipe argument must match the request-type direction
bit or control requests may fail depending on the host-controller-driver
implementation.

Control transfers without a data stage are treated as OUT requests by
the USB stack and should be using usb_sndctrlpipe(). Failing to do so
will now trigger a warning.

Fix the zero-length i2c-read request used for type detection by
attempting to read a single byte instead.
