Hi Willy,

This seems to be fixed upstream:

commit 951f788a80ff8b6339c5c1ab888b0d4b4352efd8

    ipv6: fix a BUG in rt6_get_pcpu_route()
    
    Ido reported following splat and provided a patch.
    
    [  122.221814] BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: sshd/2672

    I believe we can simplify this code path a bit, since we no longer
    hold a read_lock and need to release it to avoid a dead lock.
    
    By disabling BH, we make sure we'll prevent code re-entry and
    rt6_get_pcpu_route()/rt6_make_pcpu_route() run on the same cpu.

Which itself would depend on:

    ipv6: replace dst_hold() with dst_hold_safe() in routing code

Which applies with a small conflict.
