[Worked around]BCM43142 802.11b/g/n (rev 01) wifi adapter random
freezes. Possibly affects more broadcom devices.

Bug description:
Hi,
I've experienced random timeouts on BCM43142 802.11b/g/n (rev 01)
adapter on Lenovo Z50-70 laptop.
The flow is as follows: on startup I _always_ have a connection to my
network. I use up some traffic, then suddenly packet loss rate climbs
up, then maybe goes down, then up again and the connection becomes
effectively unresponsive. The device is still connected to the
network. Some packets, actually, even may slip through.
After reconnection (rmmod wl -> modprobe wl), it stabilizes a bit, but
then it occurs again.
It seems that the probability of such an issue increases with the
number of programs that are using connection.
I have removed all drivers but bcmwl-kernel-sources and blacklisted
their modules:
(from /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf)
blacklist ideapad_laptop
blacklist ssb
blacklist bcma
blacklist b43
blacklist brcmsmac
blacklist b43legacy
blacklist ndiswrapper
I wasn't able to find a root cause of it, but it happens really often.
Two times when I wrote this message, actually.
I am running Mint 17.3 'Rosa'
I have bcmwl-kernel-sources 6.30.223.248+bdcom-0ubuntu0.2~lp1415880~1
I tried other versions, but not succeeded. The issue makes the wifi
adapter effectively unusable.
