This is just for checking whether the Frame number is overflow or not. So
1 second should a reason value.

eframe > cframe + 1s is used to deal with the Frame number overflow.

If the interval is one, 1 more interval should be more reasonable because the
core always fetch the trb one frame ahead.

Yes, agree, but I think if the sw can be used to do the same thing and more
effective, Why not?
