I would say its more likely a problem with dst metrics changes

In this crash, we dereference a NULL dst->_metrics 'pointer' in
dst_metric_raw(dst, RTAX_MTU);

Hmm, it seems __dst_destroy_metrics_generic() doesnt add the
DST_METRICS_READ_ONLY flag ?

[PATCH] net: fix __dst_destroy_metrics_generic()

dst_default_metrics is readonly, we dont want to kfree() it later.
