Subject: [PATCH v3 net] lan743x: fix return value for lan743x_tx_napi_poll

The lan743x driver, when under heavy traffic load, has been noticed
to sometimes hang, or cause a kernel panic.

Debugging reveals that the TX napi poll routine was returning
the wrong value, 'weight'. Most other drivers return 0.
And call napi_complete, instead of napi_complete_done.

Additionally when creating the tx napi poll routine.
Changed netif_napi_add, to netif_tx_napi_add.

Updates for v3:
    changed 'fixes' tag to match defined format

Updates for v2:
use napi_complete, instead of napi_complete_done in
    lan743x_tx_napi_poll
use netif_tx_napi_add, instead of netif_napi_add for
    registration of tx napi poll routine
