If we change the code like below, does the power button can work well?

in the thinkpad_helper.c, hda_fixup_thinkpad_acpi()


         if (led_set_func(TPACPI_LED_MUTE, false) >= 0) {
             /*
             old_vmaster_hook = spec->vmaster_mute.hook;
             spec->vmaster_mute.hook = update_tpacpi_mute_led;
             removefunc = false;
            */
         }
         if (led_set_func(TPACPI_LED_MICMUTE, false) >= 0) {
           /*
             if (spec->num_adc_nids > 1)
                 codec_dbg(codec,
                       "Skipping micmute LED control due to several ADCs");
             else {
                 spec->cap_sync_hook = update_tpacpi_micmute_led;
                 removefunc = false;
             }
           */
         }


If power button can work well, please uncomment one section of the code 
to find which section code introduce this problem.

Hui.
