Since this routine is used in only one place in the entire kernel, you 
might as well inline the code there and get rid of the function 
entirely.

In a few places here this check is completely unnecessary.  All it does 
is verify that the device does have an endpoint 0 and the the type of 
the endpoint matches the type of the pipe.  Well, every USB device 
always has an endpoint 0, and it is always a bidirectional control 
endpoint.  Therefore a simple static check is all you need: There's no 
point calling usb_pipe_type_check() when the pipe is of the form 
usb_{snd|rcv}ctrlpipe(dev, 0).

In short, this check should be removed completely; it does nothing.

Same for this check.

And this one.
