[PATCH v10 1/2] net: airoha: npu: fix missing streaming DMA mask

> The driver calls dma_set_coherent_mask() but never dma_set_mask(),
> leaving the streaming DMA mask at the bus default. On the non-coherent
> EN7581 platform (Cortex-A53), this causes the NPU mailbox to hang
> after approximately 41 calls when using streaming DMA mappings.
> 
> Replace dma_set_coherent_mask() with dma_set_mask_and_coherent() to
> set both the streaming and coherent DMA masks, matching standard
> driver practice.
> 
> Fixes: 6f884eb87a79 ("net: airoha: Fix DMA direction for NPU mailbox buffer")
