You only enabled opp for 800MHz right? I am just wondering if the
voltage levels for mpu / core opps are correct for your board... You may
want to check the opp tables against the information provided by your
board manufacturer. The trace about cpufreq enabling ondemand governor
indicates it is switching to frequency throttling mode at that point, so
it most likely tries to raise MPU frequency to 800MHz (CPU load is
pretty high during boot.) You can try adding some trace to cpufreq
driver itself to see what is happening.

Another thing to verify would be to check the voltage rails on your
board schematics to see how the supply voltages are delivered.
