Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: mtk-star-emac: fix spinlock recursion issues on rx/tx poll
Use spin_lock_irqsave and spin_unlock_irqrestore instead of spin_lock
and spin_unlock in mtk_star_emac driver to avoid spinlock recursion
occurrence that can happen when enabling the DMA interrupts again in
rx/tx poll.
```
BUG: spinlock recursion on CPU#0, swapper/0/0
lock: 0xffff00000db9cf20, .magic: dead4ead, .owner: swapper/0/0,
.owner_cpu: 0
CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted
6.15.0-rc2-next-20250417-00001-gf6a27738686c-dirty #28 PREEMPT
