SUSE: CVE-2025-38126: SUSE Linux Security Advisory

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: stmmac: make sure that ptp_rate is not 0 before configuring timestamping

The stmmac platform drivers that do not open-code the clk_ptp_rate value
after having retrieved the default one from the device-tree can end up
with 0 in clk_ptp_rate (as clk_get_rate can return 0). It will
eventually propagate up to PTP initialization when bringing up the
interface, leading to a divide by 0:

Division by zero in kernel.

Prevent this division by 0 by adding an explicit check and error log
about the actual issue. While at it, remove the same check from
stmmac_ptp_register, which then becomes duplicate
