I'm fine with applying this patch, but note that mac80211_hwsim is a bit special: it genuinely doesn't even advertise rebinding, but it's also just being used for testing so it doesn't matter much.
OTOH mwifiex_pcie actually controls real hardware, and with that "netplan apply" would stop working for renames. Obviously you do call netplan apply (otherwise you wouldn't run into the crash), so I figure you do want it to actually apply.
Can you please file a bug against the kernel with the logs and traces so that this gets fixed properly eventually?

I also have an inline comment, see below.
