hi, igor ryzhov and Thomas

Since this remain issue is report recently and we need to reproduce the issue and evaluate the patch and guaranty no side affect for other case,
so I am not sure even I don't think it still have time window to hit 20.11. But whatever we have begin to check your patch for now on. What do you think so?

CC maintainers and Thomas.

This fix should be 20.11. The issue is seen multiple times a day under ~20G traffic with stats collection once per second.

When low and high registers are read separately, this opens the door to
a race condition:
- low register is read
- NIC updates the registers
- high register is read

Because of this, we may end up with an incorrect counter value.
Let's read the registers in one shot, as it is done in Linux kernel
since the introduction of the i40e driver.
