I thought I read it there but I couldn't find it. And then I found it in
Documentation/driver-api/usb/URB.rst:

| most ISO transfer fields.

So you simply asking that the kerneldoc of usb_fill_int_urb() is
extended to mention isoc, too?

I did:

| usb_fill_int_urb() also checks bInterval to be in the 1…16 range on
| HS/SS.

so this wasn't enough?

Actually no. I was looking for all the ->complete handlers and most of
them used usb_fill_… except a few. And while moving to the function I
was checking if everything stays the same (and mentioned ->interval
since ->start_frame is documented as a return parameter).

So here you are asking for a description update which explicit says
bug-fix?

It should not. The documentation says:
