I was under impression that you refer to the current code, confused me a
bit :/

Comment says:
/* Deprecated for new users, call netdev_get_by_index() instead */
struct net_device *dev_get_by_index(struct net *net, int ifindex)

Perhaps better to use:
netdev_get_by_index() and netdev_put()?


>+		if (dev)
>+			in_dev = in_dev_get(dev);

The original flow:
		err = -ENODEV;
		dev = dev_get_by_index(net, ifindex);
		if (!dev)
			goto errout;
		in_dev = in_dev_get(dev);
 		if (!in_dev)
 			goto errout;
Reads a bit nicer to me. Not sure why you changed it. Yeah, it's a nit.
