A user in enterprise support reported a low (<1/50) chance of network
crash (with soft lockups reported) when exiting ovs-tcpdump (a tcpdump
wrapper provided by Open vSwitch) which they could only resolve by
rebooting the host.
After reporting the issue upstream with a reproducer [1], an OVS
developer submitted a kernel patch which is now included 6.13 and some
stable kernels. With this patch, the reproducer does not seem to
trigger the issue anymore. Hence, backport the patch.
