Upstream stable 4.4.181 had many brcmfmac updates. From the trace
suspicious seems:
brcmfmac: revise handling events in receive path
commit 9c349892ccc90c6de2baaa69cc78449f58082273 upstream.
which has a fixup upstream that sounds like the issue:
commit 31143e2933d1675c4c1ba6ce125cdd95870edd85

brcmfmac: add eth_type_trans back for PCIe full dongle
A regression was introduced in commit 9c349892ccc9 ("brcmfmac: revise
handling events in receive path") which moves eth_type_trans() call
to brcmf_rx_frame(). Msgbuf layer doesn't use brcmf_rx_frame() but invokes
brcmf_netif_rx() directly. In such case the Ethernet header was not
stripped out resulting in null pointer dereference in the networking
stack.
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000048
