Another, probably simpler way would be to move almost all pppol2tp_xmit

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).
I did this and all lockdep errors have now gone. Tests ran all weekend.
See attached patch.
Is this an acceptable solution? If so, I'll prepare and send official
patches.
