Is it possible to call the core of stmmac_fpe_irq_status() to extract
the information from these bits and then call
stmmac_fpe_event_status()?
Alternatively, can you actually set RCWE in MAC_CSR_SW_Ctrl and add a
mask to dwmac5_fpe_configure() etc so they don't write 1 to these
bits? That seems safer than assuming 8 bit reads work.
