Answer in brief
CVE-2024-42110 records a Unknown severity vulnerability in net: ntb_netdev: Move ntb_netdev_rx_handler() to call netif_rx() from __netif_rx(). The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. The current feed maps Linux/Linux (generic), Linux/Linux (generic). Check affected ranges and fixed versions before updating.

While the following commit changed from netif_rx() to __netif_rx(), baebdf48c360 ("net: dev: Makes sure netif_rx() can be invoked in any context."), the change should've been a noop instead. However, the code precedes this fix should've been using netif_rx_ni() or netif_rx_any_context().
