Subject: [PATCH NET] vrf: fix null pointer dereference in vrf_finish_output()

After 14ee70ca89e6 ("vrf: use skb_expand_head in vrf_finish_output")
skb->dev  is accessed after skb free.
Let's replace skb->dev by dev = skb_dst(skb)->dev:
vrf_finish_output() is only called from vrf_output(),
it set skb->dev to skb_dst(skb)->dev and calls POSTROUTING netfilter
hooks, where output device should not be changed.

Fixes: 14ee70ca89e6 ("vrf: use skb_expand_head in vrf_finish_output")
