Most digital TV devices also have ISOC endpoints. I'm not sure about
Siano.

The problem is not with int endpoints. Most media devices have isoc
endpoints. There are even cases that different device models supported
by the same driver have some bulk and some isoc endpoints. See em28xx
driver for instance: most devices are isoc only; some have both isoc
and bulk; a few have just bulk.

In the specific case of siano, it supports 3 generations of devices
(sms1000, sms11xx, sms22xx), each with several submodels.
Those 3 generations have different specs, and sms1000 even have one
"boot" USB ID, and one "warm" USB ID, each one with different endpoints.

That's basically why I'm afraid of a patch like this could cause
regressions if not properly tested, as it is changing the logic
from just detecting the direction to also validate if the endpoint
is not isoc.
