That would be nice I think.

This sounds to me like a sanity check, while the patch effectively changes the 
code as follows for HS and SS:

-		urb->interval = ep->desc.bInterval;
+		urb->interval = 1 << (ep->desc.bInterval - 1);

I believe the change is correct, although it would be nice if you could 
double-check, as the documentation of the function states:

 * @interval: what to set the urb interval to, encoded like
 *      the endpoint descriptor's bInterval value.

I'd like that, as it seems to be a bugfix, not just a code cleanup without any 
behavioural change.

Thanks for checking.
