PCI: hotplug: pciehp: Fix possible race condition in writing slot

The slot control register is modified as follows:

    (1) Read the register value
    (2) Change the value
    (3) Write the value to the register

Those must be done atomically, otherwise writing to control register
would cause an unexpected result.
