No matter how much you move the assignment around, there's no escaping
the truth that the Tag Removal bit in the Port Registers affects all
VLANs that egress a port, whereas the BRIDGE_VLAN_INFO_UNTAGGED flag
controls egress VLAN stripping per VLAN. Sorry, if you work with broken
hardware, you might as well treat it accordingly too.

And as to why the moving around would make any difference in the first
place, you need to do a better job explaining that. There is nothing
that prevents PORT_REMOVE_TAG from being written to the port, regardless
of the order of operations. Unless the order matters?
