[ Upstream commit 2738d9d963bd1f06d5114c2b4fa5771a95703991 ]
Fixes sporadic IPv6 packet loss when flow offloading is enabled.
IPv6 route GC and flowtable GC are not synchronized.
When dst_cache becomes stale and a packet passes through the flow before
the flowtable GC teardowns it, the packet can be dropped.
So, it is necessary to check dst every time in packet path.
Fixes: 227e1e4d0d6c ("netfilter: nf_flowtable: skip device lookup from interface index")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
