I gave a look at your patch Stephen and found we need a new
next_net_device_rcu(struct net_device *dev) as well,
as next_net_device() is not RCU safe.

(followup patch is probably needed to use it in net/ipv4/igmp.c,
after commit 61fbab77a843d2e77232 : IPV4: use rcu to walk list of devices in IGMP)

We also can avoid taking references on inet6_dev structs.

[PATCH net-next-2.6] ipv6: use RCU to walk list of network devices

No longer need read_lock(&dev_base_lock), use RCU instead.
We also can avoid taking references on inet6_dev structs.
