How reproducible is this bug?:

Using RHCOS 9.6.20250908-0 with the kernel 5.14.0-570.41.1.el9_6.x86_64 deploy the following image: https://quay.io/repository/cdonato/dpdk_rte_raw 

Steps to reproduce

1. Deploy OCP 4.20-rc.2 using ZTP with Telco profile
2. Deploy the following workload: https://quay.io/repository/cdonato/dpdk_rte_raw  (I can provide access to the automation)
3. Wait for the pod to come up and crash
