No worries, the bug will be nuked from orbit sooner or later :D

I'll move that code around and see if I can find where it crashes. Should I
move it around only inside the function where you put it now
(transition_frequency_fidvid()) or also try other functions?
On that note, since I'm going to be changing only one file and it is built as a
module, is it ok if I do only:
make drivers/cpufreq/powernow-k8.ko?
Also, what is the best and fastest way, if possible, to compile only what
changed?
