Looking at the kernel code, I see that kernel does add link-local address automatically in init_loopback(), but that is called from ipv6 notifier block. So, in turn the userspace that brought up the loopback interface may see rtnetlink ACK earlier than addrconf_notify() does it's job (at least, on a slow VM such as netdev). Probably, for ipv4 it's the same, judging by inetdev_event(). The fix is quite simple: set the link-local route straight after bringing the loopback interface. That will make it synchronous.
