Why exactly we can't get ifindex of the kernel interface?

We're leaking netdev reference here.

Shouldn't we check netdev_flow_api_equals(netdev, outdev) here instead?
This way we will be sure that flow API was successfully initialized for
the outdev and we're not mixing different offload providers.
