Actually, the simplest off all seems to be now this old idea to maybe make sk_dst_lock globally softirq immune. At least I think it's worth of testing, to check for these other possible lockdep warnings. It should only need to change all write_ and read_lock(&sk->sk_dst_lock) in very few places: include/net/sock.h, include/net/ip6_route.h, and net/ipv6/ipv6_sockglue.c. This could be tested together with you full _bh locking patch (maybe except these other changes in pppol2tp_xmit).
