BF 6 crashes my entire PC on launch – PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA (eaanticheat.sys)

Problem
Battlefield 6 used to work perfectly.
After one of the recent Battlefield updates, the game can no longer start.
When I launch Battlefield 6 through Steam:
Steam starts the game normally.
A black Battlefield window appears for a few seconds.
Windows immediately crashes with:
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA (0x50)
Faulting driver: eaanticheat.sys
The PC automatically restarts.
The crash happens every single time before reaching the main menu.
No other games cause this issue.
WinDbg Analysis
BugCheck: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA (0x50)
IMAGE_NAME: eaanticheat.sys
PROCESS_NAME: bf6.exe
FAILURE_BUCKET_ID:
AV_eaanticheat!unknown_function
The crash dump clearly points to eaanticheat.sys.
Things I already tried:
Reinstalled Battlefield 6
Verified game files in Steam
Completely removed and reinstalled EA Javelin AntiCheat
Updated NVIDIA drivers
Updated Windows
Removed Gigabyte EasyTuneEngineService
Removed Gigabyte App Center
No overclocking
The problem remains exactly the same.
