------------------

From: Li RongQing <roy.qing.li@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit fbdc0ad095c0a299e9abf5d8ac8f58374951149a ]

the value of itag is a random value from stack, and may not be initiated by
fib_validate_source, which called fib_combine_itag if CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_CLASSID
is not set

This will make the cached dst uncertainty
