igc_configure_rx_ring() function will be called as part of XDP program

this timestamp enablement will be overwritten when buffer size is
written into SRRCTL register.

Thus, this commit read the register value before write to SRRCTL
register. This commit is tested by using xdp_hw_metadata bpf selftest
tool. The tool enables Rx hardware timestamp and then attach XDP program
to igc driver. It will display hardware timestamp of UDP packet with
port number 9092. Below are detail of test steps and results.

Command on DUT:
sudo ./xdp_hw_metadata <interface name>

Command on Link Partner:
echo -n skb | nc -u -q1 <destination IPv4 addr> 9092

Result before this patch:
skb hwtstamp is not found!

Result after this patch:
found skb hwtstamp = 1677800973.642836757

Optionally, read PHC to confirm the values obtained are almost the same:
Command:
sudo ./testptp -d /dev/ptp0 -g
Result:
clock time: 1677800973.913598978 or Fri Mar 3 07:49:33 2023
