I too get such exceptions. In my case the situation is

Oct 22 15:02:45 pc7212 kernel: Exception at c012d63b (c012d64a)
Oct 22 15:03:41 pc7212 kernel: Exception at c012d63b (c012d64a)
Oct 22 15:10:06 pc7212 kernel: Exception at c012d63b (c012d64a)
Oct 22 15:12:45 pc7212 kernel: Exception at c012d63b (c012d64a)
Oct 22 15:12:55 pc7212 kernel: Exception at c012d63b (c012d64a)

I don't know what this means, but I do know that I get page faults, i.e.,
page_fault is called. The relevant System.map tells me of nothing at c012d63b,
if that's relevant. Anyone got an idea of what's going on and how to track it
down? BTW, I do have libc-5.4.7 and I'm on a laptop with Pico Power Tech.
system chip, if that's relevant.

TIA,
