The other thing I wonder about is why Tobias bisected this to

commit b838d5e1c5b6e57b10ec8af2268824041e3ea911
ipv4: mark DST_NOGC and remove the operation of dst_free()

from 'Jun 17 2017' and not to

commit 222d7dbd258dad4cd5241c43ef818141fad5a87a
net: prevent dst uses after free

from 'Sep 21 2017'.

Maybe Tobias has seen two bugs. Before
("net: prevent dst uses after free"), it was the
use after free, and after this fix it was a NULL
pointer derference of skb->dst.
Uhm, yeah, I checked back, we actually had different bugs. My mistake, sorry
for the confusion.
