If the preferred format involves brackets and quotes - so be it.

It may not be related, but the change is:

	a) obviously correct; and

	b) in sync with the rest of 'ret' evaluations;

To be honest i do not envision usb_control_msg_send() returning positive value
anytime soon, but (ret < 0) looks "more" correct than (!ret).
