Which multipath hash policy are you using? I guess the issue is more
visible with L4 as ip_can_use_hint() at least makes sure the destination
IP is the same before using the hint.

Did you consider marking the skb instead of the route? Something like
[1]. Compile tested only.
Also, are you positive that your selftest fails before the patch and
passes after? It is using VRFs, which use FIB rules, which should in
turn disable the use of hints. If this is indeed the case, then try
using namespaces instead. There are various examples outside of the
forwarding directory.
