I did some more digging. I think this was introduced by commit
efc6b6f6c311 ("udp: Improve load balancing for SO_REUSEPORT.") which
unfortunately ran into a merge conflict. That resulted in Dave Miller
moving the bug around in commit a57066b1a019 ("Merge
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net"). Can you
take a look and let me know if you think that is correct?

Best
