Subject: [PATCH] atm/fore200e: Consolidate available cell rate update to prevent race condition

In fore200e_change_qos, there is a race condition due to two consecutive
updates to the 'available_cell_rate' variable. If a read operation 
occurs between these updates, an intermediate value might be read, 
leading to potential bugs.

To fix this issue, 'available_cell_rate' should be adjusted in a single 
operation, ensuring consistency and preventing any intermediate states 
from being read.

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
