Syzkaller reports [1] hitting a warning which is caused by presence
of a wrong endpoint type at the URB sumbitting stage. While there
was a check for a specific 4th endpoint, since it can switch types
between bulk and interrupt, other endpoints are trusted implicitly.
Similar warning is triggered in a couple of other syzbot issues [2].

Fix the issue by doing a comprehensive check of all endpoints
taking into account difference between high- and full-speed
configuration.

This patch has not been tested on real hardware.

This was tricky. USB 2.0 works and was easy to test.
But I had to hunt down a FULLSPEED USB Host for this.
The driver loads on with a OHCI Host (Silicon Image, Inc. USB0673 (rev 06))

So, I think this would work. But see my comments below.

P.S. as AR9170_USB_EP_CMD endpoint can switch between bulk and int,
I failed to find a prettier solution to this problem. Will be glad
to hear if there is a better option...
