CVE-2025-38371 drm/v3d: Disable interrupts before resetting the GPU
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/v3d: Disable interrupts before resetting the GPU

Currently, an interrupt can be triggered during a GPU reset, which can
lead to GPU hangs and NULL pointer dereference in an interrupt context
as shown in the following trace:
