CVE-2025-37993

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

can: m_can: m_can_class_allocate_dev(): initialize spin lock on device probe

The spin lock tx_handling_spinlock in struct m_can_classdev is not being initialized. This leads the following spinlock bad magic complaint from the kernel, eg. when trying to send CAN frames with cansend from can-utils:

Initializing the spin lock in m_can_class_allocate_dev solves that problem.
