commit baa35a698cea26930679a20a7550bbb4c8319725 upstream.

Access to net_device::ip_ptr and its associated members must be
protected by an RCU lock. Since we are modifying this piece of code,
let's also move it to execute only when WAKE_ARP is enabled.

To minimize the duration of the RCU lock, a local variable is used to
temporarily store the IP address. This change resolves the following
RCU check warning:
  WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
  7.0.0-rc3-next-20260310-yocto-standard+ #122 Not tainted
  -----------------------------
  drivers/net/ethernet/cadence/macb_main.c:5944 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

  other info that might help us debug this:

  rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
