Since the receiver of the query interprets these fields using the MLDv2 floating-point decoding logic, any value that exceeds the linear threshold is incorrectly parsed as an exponential value, leading to an incorrect interval calculation. Encode and assign the corresponding protocol fields during query generation. Introduce the logic to dynamically calculate the exponent and mantissa using bit-scan (fls). This ensures MRC (16-bit) and QQIC (8-bit) fields are properly encoded when transmitting query packets with intervals that exceed their respective linear thresholds (32768 for MRD; 128 for QQI).
