Subject: [PATCH 0/2] net: ethernet: mtk-star-emac: fix several issues on
 rx/tx poll

This patchset fixes two issues with the mtk-star-emac driver.

The first patch fixes spin lock recursion issues I've observed on the
Mediatek Genio 350-EVK board using this driver when the Ethernet
functionality is enabled on the board (requires a correct jumper and
DIP switch configuration, as well as enabling the device in the
devicetree).
The issues can be easily reproduced with apt install or ssh commands
especially and with the CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK parameter, when
one occurs, there is backtrace similar to this:
```
BUG: spinlock recursion on CPU#0, swapper/0/0

The second patch is a cleanup patch to fix a inconsistency in the
mtk_star_rx_poll function between the napi_complete_done api usage and
its description in documentation.

I've tested this patchset on Mediatek Genio 350-EVK board with a kernel
based on linux-next (tag: next-20250422).
