You have misunderstood the problem.

drivers/usb/core/message.c:245 allows drivers to call usb_bulk_msg()  
when the target is actually an interrupt endpoint.  The bug in this
case is that drivers/media/radio/radio-shark2.c:88 calls
usb_interrupt_msg() with an INTERRUPT pipe type when the target is
actually a bulk endpoint.

These are two different things.  It can make sense to use an interrupt 
endpoint, especially if a bulk endpoint is not available.  But the 
reverse does not make sense, because bulk endpoints do not provide the 
bandwidth guarantees that interrupt endpoints do.
