The problem with this is cases with interval of 1ms. This will result in
a 4ms delay. I really want to start transfer as soon as possible and the
timestamp trick seems to be the best idea so far, without resorting to
4 intervals delay. We do, however, have the possibility that this will
start 2 intervals in the future because of the usage of
DIV_ROUND_UP_ULL() and because of how DWC3_ALIGN_FRAME() is implemented.

I understand what you're saying, though, but it seems like we don't
have to avoid that case completely. We can only make it less likely.
