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!
