Subject: [PATCH] add endpoint direction test in alt_xfer

Hi, 

This patch fixes a bug in gspca, more precisely in alt_xfer().

This function looks for an input transfer endpoint in an alternate setting.
By default it returns the first endpoint corresponding to the transfer type 
indicated in parameter.
But with some USB devices, the first endpoint corresponding to the transfer 
type is not always an INPUT endpoint but an OUTPOUT one.

This patch adds the endpoint direction test to be sure to return an INPUT endpoint

Regards
