I have a Z3735F baytrail tablet running Debian 8 with a 1 month old linux-next kernel.

I've lowered the i915_max_freq to 345 MHz, and achieved stability that way.
No freezes since then. The Z3735F GPU has a base freq of 311 MHz, so I am pretty close to that.

I have also patched the kernel source with a few baytrail sdhci related patches from: https://github.com/hadess/rtl8723bs/tree/master/patches
