Current code writes the tx/rx relaxed order without reading it first.
This can lead to unintended consequences as we are forcibly writing
other bits.
We noticed this problem while testing VF driver on sparc. Relaxed
order settings for rx queue were all messed up which was causing
performance drop with VF interface.
Fixed it by reading the registers first and setting the specific
bit of interest. With this change we are able to match the bandwidth
equivalent to PF interface.
