Wouldn't this affect routes in different VRFs?

See commit 5a56a0b3a45d ("net: Don't delete routes in different VRFs")
and related fixes:

8a2618e14f81 ipv4: Fix incorrect table ID in IOCTL path
c0d999348e01 ipv4: Fix incorrect route flushing when table ID 0 is used
f96a3d74554d ipv4: Fix incorrect route flushing when source address is deleted
e0a312629fef ipv4: Fix table id reference in fib_sync_down_addr

Anyway, please add tests to tools/testing/selftests/net/fib_tests.sh
