It is ip_rcv_finish() called from ip_rcv():
	if (skb->dst == NULL) {
		int err = ip_route_input(skb, iph->daddr, iph->saddr, iph->tos,
					 skb->dev);
		if (unlikely(err)) {
			if (err == -EHOSTUNREACH)
				IP_INC_STATS_BH(IPSTATS_MIB_INADDRERRORS);
			else if (err == -ENETUNREACH)
				IP_INC_STATS_BH(IPSTATS_MIB_INNOROUTES);
			goto drop;
		}
	}

So you will have to specify device, you got your skb via.
Actually it is not exactly needed in some cases, you will need interface
index (dev->ifindex). You can find socket by using that number instead
of dereferencing dst.
