700 is a program check (illegal instruction or BUG_ON() statement) 900 is decrementer (aka timer) interrupt. > The 0x1000c694 address looks fishy? That's userspace. So you took a timer interrupt, which got into hrtimer, and something you did caused cpufreq_notify_transition to crash, probably with a BUG_ON (which you can probably see above what you pasted, unless you don't have access to that part of the backtrace).
