I am staring at ip6_dst_destroy() and the last part makes really no sense to me.

How rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unnlock() can help in a writer side ???

Changlog of a68886a691804d3f6d479ebf6825480fbafb6a00 ("net/ipv6: Make from in 
rt6_info rcu protected")
does not make sense either.

    There is a race window when a FIB entry is deleted and the 'from' on the
    pcpu route is dropped and the pcpu route hits a cookie check. Handle
    this race using rcu on from.
