One scenario:
Division by zero in kernel.
[<c00399c4>] (unwind_backtrace+0x0/0xe0) from [<c0162ed4>] (Ldiv0+0x8/0x10)
[<c0162ed4>] (Ldiv0+0x8/0x10) from [<c018a1bc>]
(max8997_set_voltage_ldobuck+0x198/0x1bc)
[<c018a1bc>] (max8997_set_voltage_ldobuck+0x198/0x1bc) from [<c0187ae8>]
(_regulator_do_set_voltage+0x2c/0x1c4)
[<c0187ae8>] (_regulator_do_set_voltage+0x2c/0x1c4) from [<c0187eec>]
(regulator_register+0x25c/0xe2c)
[<c0187eec>] (regulator_register+0x25c/0xe2c) from [<c02b9124>]
(max8997_pmic_probe+0x5b8/0x69c)
