bInterval is the USB polling interval which should be 1msec.
It is HCI packet interval that needs to be 7.5msec.

Based on the bInterval the polling happens in the USB driver for every 1
msec.
As per present implementation the HCI packet of 63bytes is transfered every
1msec.
Also, I disabled the ASAP flag but it doesn't help to maintain the ALT 6
HCI packet interval of 7.5msec.

It looks like the from PA we need to maintain the time interval for WBS.
Please help in the right direction to proceed futher.
