It is related to:

1. Debian gcc in stable being used to compile the kernel
2. unmodified led_set_status() function on thinkpad-acpi.c
3. kernel compiled in "optimize for size" mode
4. stack frames NOT being enabled.

Change one, and the bug is gone.

AFAIK, it means Debian stable's gcc is generating bad code.

But I need help from someone with good knowledge of gcc to give us the
final word on it.  I might be doing something stupid in thinkpad-acpi.c,
after all.

I will attach the relevant data to the bug report.
