Just for the record - a simple grep for usbnet_read_cmd shows that at
least drivers/net/usb/plusb.c depends on the current behaviour:

static inline int
pl_vendor_req(struct usbnet *dev, u8 req, u8 val, u8 index)
{
        return usbnet_read_cmd(dev, req,
                                USB_DIR_IN | USB_TYPE_VENDOR |
                                USB_RECIP_DEVICE,
                                val, index, NULL, 0);
}
