To me this reads like the condition is
(IN ESIT >= 64ms && IN pre-scheduled before OUT) ||
(OUT ESIT < IN ESIT)
but I suspect it really is
(IN ESIT >= 64ms) &&
(IN pre-scheduled before OUT || OUT ESIT < IN ESIT)
because otherwise this workaround wouldn't really help:
ISOC OUT ESIT < INT IN ESIT is almost always true in practice.
Moving "either" later maybe makes it more clear:
This can happen when an IN endpoint with a 64ms service interval either
is pre-scheduled prior to the ISOC OUT endpoint or the interval of the
ISOC OUT endpoint is shorter than that of the IN endpoint.

What if there is an ISOC IN endpoint with 64ms ESIT? I haven't yet seen
such a slow isoc endpoint, but I think they are allowed by the spec.
Your changelog suggests any periodic IN endpoint can trigger this bug.

The interesting question here is whether LS/FS devices with long
interval IN endpoints can disrupt a HS OUT endpoint or not, because
the patch solves the problem from the IN endpoint's side.
(I assume that SS probably has no effect on HS schedule.)
