xhci-mtk has 64 slots for periodic bandwidth calculations and each
slot represents byte budgets on a microframe. When an endpoint's
allocation sits on the boundary of the table, byte budgets' slot
should be rolled over but the current implementation doesn't.

This patch applies a 6 bits mask to the microframe index to handle
its rollover 64 slots and prevent out-of-bounds array access.

Why is this "RFC"?  What needs to be addressed in this change before it
can be accepted?

sorry, I had to mention why this is RFC:

I simply don't know about the details of the xhci-mtk internals.
It was okay from my tests with mt8173 and I think this will be harmless
as this is "better than before".

But when I removed get_esit_boundary(), I really have no idea why
it was there. I'm wondering if there was another reason of that function
other than just preventing out-of-bounds. Maybe chunfeng can answer this?

Thanks!

thanks,
