Public bug reported:

The bcmwl 6.30.223.141/248/271 driver versions (both vanilla & ubuntu-
patched up to .248) hardlock the system (freeze) on vanilla kernel
4.6.0.

Reproducibility: always
The freeze seems to be faster with increased network usage (can happen within minutes of a fresh boot).

bcmwl-kernel-source works fine on the 4.4.0-22 ubuntu kernel though.
Didn't test on 4.4 vanilla or 4.5.

** Affects: bcmwl (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
