TL;DR: I think 3dec89b14d37 should be reverted for 6.6 and 6.7
(selftests should be valid with or without this change) and you try
again for 6.9 (6.7 dev cycle is about to close).

I was successful in triggering UAF twice yesterday, but a slightly
different code path that in Eric's trace:

This is the WARN_ON for !hlist_unhashed in fib6_info_release:

This is just aggressive RA's and aggressive gc with a hack to the stack
to toggle lifetime or metric on every RA (something that can be scripted
with an ra command - set and reset lifetime in every other RA and change
the metric in every RA).

I was targeting this code path because I noticed rt6_add_dflt_router
sets RTF_EXPIRES but does not pass in the expires value. There are races
(like the one you found with a different code path) in the handling of
RTF_EXPIRES, setting the timer, running gc and adding the route entry to
the gc list.

In short there are a number of places in the RA path that need the
lifetime handling cleaned up first to make it all consistent with the
idea of using a linked list to track entries with an expires tag.
