Yes, we are expecting the same. But, we must verify the status of 
evt->flags, which will indicate whether the event is currently 
processing in middle or not. The below code is for the reference.

if (!(evt->flags & DWC3_EVENT_PENDING))
	dwc3_writel(dwc->regs, DWC3_GEVNTSIZ(0),
			 DWC3_GEVNTSIZ_SIZE(evt->length));
else
	dwc3_writel(dwc->regs, DWC3_GEVNTSIZ(0),
			DWC3_GEVNTSIZ_INTMASK | DWC3_GEVNTSIZ_SIZE(evt->length));

Yes we tried to play around the changing of imod interval value but no 
improvements.
