During a USB transfer, all packets must have a length of max packet length for
the pipe/endpoint, except the final one that can be a short packet. Without the
alignment I make for xfr_bytes, short packets can occur within a transfer,
because the hardware starts a new packet for each new queued qTD it handles.

Best regards,
