Since the cited commit, ip_route_input_slow() could call
rt_dst_alloc() with vrf in the local_input: path.

If res->fi != NULL and one of the following is true,

  - a non-zero itag from fib_validate_source_reason()
    (realms/classid)
  - RTN_BROADCAST with BC_FORWARDING enabled

do_cache is set to false.

Then, the route is not added to rt_uncached_list, so the
route cannot be removed from rt_flush_dev().

If the route is cached in sk->sk_rx_dst, removing the
vrf device gets stuck. [0]

Let's call rt_add_uncached_list() if !do_cache in
ip_route_input_slow().
