It won't have any effect on CONFIG_USB_BANDWIDTH, as the EHCI transaction 
translator scheudling code doesn't care about that config setting.  This 
also won't have any effect on USB 2.0 devices (e.g. a highspeed Audio 
device).

The updates will only help in the situation where there are multiple
lowpseed or fullspeed devices with periodic endpoints, all connected to
the same USB 2.0 (highspeed) hub.  In that situation it's possible to
"fill up" the USB 2.0 hub's transaction translator periodic schedule with
only a few devices.  The updates allow many more devices to fit in the
TT's periodic schedule.  The specific number of devices depends on how 
many periodic endpoints, those endpoint's poll rates, and their max packet 
sizes.
