Are you sure this is the commit that introduced this? Too lazy to look,
but most probably this just moved already buggy code.

I don't think that usbnet_get_endpoints() can return positive value.
Better to have just:
	ret = usbnet_get_endpoints(dev, intf);
	if (ret)

just "return ret" here. I know that the rest of the function does this
too, don't copy odd pattern.
