What happened:
On Shoot creation the ControlPlane gets mutated with:

    providerConfig:
      apiVersion: aws.provider.extensions.gardener.cloud/v1alpha1
      cloudControllerManager:
        useCustomRouteController: true

On a subsequent Shoot reconciliation, the gardenlet sets again the providerConfig field and the ControlPlane is reverted to:

    providerConfig:
      apiVersion: aws.provider.extensions.gardener.cloud/v1alpha1
      kind: ControlPlaneConfig

and the aws-custom-route-controller gets disabled again.

The issue is also described in gardener/gardener#6703 (comment).
