UTSA-2025-987707 advisory.

    net: USB: Fix wrong-direction WARNING in plusb.c

    The syzbot fuzzer detected a bug in the plusb network driver: A
    zero-length control-OUT transfer was treated as a read instead of a
    write.  In modern kernels this error provokes a WARNING:

    The fix is to call usbnet_write_cmd() instead of usbnet_read_cmd() and
    remove the USB_DIR_IN flag.
