A workaround seems to be to use the b43 driver, which now supports the
4312 network controller. Please check [1] to confirm your device is
supported by any of the opensource b43 drivers family before proceeding.

Title:
  Kernel panic with kernel 3.18, using vivid vervet

Status in bcmwl package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Whenever I boot into the linux kernel 3.18.0-13, almost as soon as my
  WiFi connects to a network, I get a kernel panic. This bug has been
  found and worked around in the arch linux forums [
  https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=192287&p=6 ].

  I am using a broadcom bcm4312 network controller through driver source
  provided by bcmwl-kernel-source 60.30.223.248+bdcom in Ubuntu amd64
  15.04.
