As Eric noted netif_index_is_vrf is not called with rcu_read_lock held,
so use dev_get_by_index instead of dev_get_by_index_rcu.

If VRF is not enabled or oif is 0 skip the device lookup.

Why not

  static inline bool netif_index_is_vrf(struct net *net, int ifindex)
  {
-       struct net_device *dev = dev_get_by_index_rcu(net, ifindex);
        bool rc = false;

-       if (dev)
-               rc = netif_is_vrf(dev);
+#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NET_VRF)
+       struct net_device *dev;
+
+       if (ifindex == 0)
+               return false;

        rcu_read_lock();

        dev = dev_get_by_index_rcu(net, ifindex);
        if (dev)
                rc = netif_is_vrf(dev);

        rcu_read_unlock();

+#endif
        return rc;

instead?

sure. That saves the inc and dec on the refcnt. will respin.
