BAD_POOL_CALLER in Windows 10 Creator's Update

I recently did a clean install of Windows 10 Creator's Update on my Asus G551JX and installed/updated all the drivers. However, I've been nagged by the random BSODs that's been happening ever since. I say random because I can't seem to point it to a particular application and it happens when I'm browsing with Chrome or watching a video or probably even checking out stuff on Steam. My BSOD analysis skills are below par and I would appreciate it if someone could tell me what's causing it. I have attached the minidump file of my recent BSOD here.

For the record, I used to get different kind of BSODs after the install but I thought maybe my drivers are out-of-date and couldn't find new ones on the support page (thanks Asus) so I used Driver Booster to see if it can update and fix these issues. I also use NetLimiter, ESET Smart Security and MalwareBytes Free if that info helps.

Attention: Before posting a BSOD thread, please read the instructions here: Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions If you need to add new information, please make a new post in your initial BSOD thread. Please do not make an extra new thread.

Please refer to several recent threads that have BSOD events associated with ASUS laptops and while watching youtube videos. They have all been fixed by using an older version of the rtwlane.sys driver. You have the same problem.
For example: BSOD watching videos on youtube, error Watchdog Violation.

FIX here: BSOD, everytime i watch videos on youtube, DPC watchdog violation - Windows 10 Forums

Hi, thanks for the feedback and sorry for not checking the rules first. I attached a zip file generated by the program I downloaded from the rules post. Regarding rtwlane.sys, um, I have Qualcomm wireless adapter and I don't see any Realtek drivers mentioned in the support page as well.
