I have tested it with a host controller that is capable of 64-bit DMA and
without this change it doesn't work. At the moment it is the only known
USB host controller enabled for arm64. And 64-bit DMA works fine on arm64.

Well, I don't want to enable 64-bit DMA for *all* the platforms, so there
needs to be an #else. While it is true that ehci->periodic_dma variable
has the top 32 bits zero, that cannot be guaranteed to be true for the
physical register holding that value, so I guess the write is not superfluous.
