Relocate IQ/OQ IN/OUT_CNTS updates to occur before NAPI completion,
and replace napi_complete with napi_complete_done.
Moving the IQ/OQ counter updates before napi_complete_done ensures
1. Counter registers are updated before re-enabling interrupts.
2. Prevents a race where new packets arrive but counters aren't properly
synchronized.
napi_complete_done (vs napi_complete) allows for better
interrupt coalescing.

Utilize READ_ONCE and WRITE_ONCE APIs for IO queue Tx/Rx
variable access to prevent compiler optimization and reordering.
Additionally, ensure IO queue OUT/IN_CNT registers are flushed
by performing a read-back after writing.
The compiler could reorder reads/writes to pkts_pending, last_pkt_count,
etc., causing stale values to be used when calculating packets to process
or register updates to send to hardware. The Octeon hardware requires a
read-back after writing to OUT_CNT/IN_CNT registers to ensure the write
has been flushed through any posted write buffers before the interrupt
resend bit is set. Without this, we have observed cases where the hardware
didn't properly update its internal state.
wmb/rmb only provides ordering guarantees but doesn't prevent the compiler
from performing optimizations like caching in registers, load tearing etc.
