Re: [PATCH v5 04/21] usb: dwc2: host: Set host_perio_tx_fifo_size to 304 for rk3066

[Kever Yang]

Hi Doug,

We are using the minimum FIFO size mode for TX now, which only
equal to one max packet size.

The addition FIFO size may help shorten the inter-packet data
prepare latency when the bus/DRAM is busy.

For the actual usage in TX, we have very little change to use the
period TX FIFO with more than one max packet size in host mode.
So far as I know, usb audio use the isochronous tx FIFO, but this
king of device won't have much data payload and won't, I haven't
see a usb audio have more data than 1024byte/ms.

So I suggest we assign this 48 words to host_nperio_tx_fifi_size instead
if we have to do this. Because we are using device base on bulk transaction
like U-disk very frequently.

Thanks,
- Kever
