I'm reasonably sure, yes:

if (iif) {
  ip_route_input_rcu // 1 might get NOREF dst
} else {
  ip_route_output_key_hash_rcu // 2 always takes dst ref
}
skb_dst_set /* 3 loses NOREF in case of 1) */

Right, this is broken state (has both ba52d61e0ff and 3765d35ed8b9)

This is fine, it lacks 3765d35ed8b9:
both branches take a reference on dst so '3' above has no side effect.

AFAICS this is before dst gc removal, I guess (but did not
check) that KASAN vs. refcount just comes from this.

>   a5e2ee5da47 - works fine

Should cause a memory leak when iif is not given (ref on dst is
taken but not released in case of 2), ba52d61e0ff cured this but
adds the problem described here).

Does that make it clearer?
