There are two commits from Linux 4.2 that may help:
commit e9e4dd3267d0 ("net: do not process device backlog during unregistration")
commit 2c17d27c36dc ("net: call rcu_read_lock early in process_backlog")
For now I see them only in 3.2.71+ and 3.12.48+.
I think, they will appear in other stable versions too...
