If it's sorted, it can be something like this. Just a quick logic and not tested:

num = 0
for (epnum = 0; epnum < total; epnum++) {
	if (num < count && epnum == eps[num]) {
		num++;
		continue;
	}

	...
}

No. We track the total num_eps in dwc->num_eps. Then we do for-loop to
dwc->eps[i] and access the endpoint. Often we check if the endpoint is
NULL before accessing dwc->eps[i]. However, we don't do it everywhere.
So I ask for you to review to make sure that this change doesn't break
elsewhere where we may try to access dwc->eps[i] to an uninit endpoint
(Note I see at least 1 place e.g. dwc3_gadget_clear_tx_fifos that may
break)
