The following call chain we can identify that dn_cache_getroute() is
protected under rtnl_lock. So if we use __dev_get_by_index() instead
of dev_get_by_index() to find interface handlers in it, this would help
us avoid to change interface reference counter.
rtnetlink_rcv()
rtnl_lock()
netlink_rcv_skb()
dn_cache_getroute()
rtnl_unlock()
