Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] media: fix zero-length USB control requests

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.

This series fixes the three media drivers that got this wrong.

Changes in v2
