No, it's a driver issue, but I forget the exact fix, as I've never had the
problem myself.

That's true and not true. Recent kernels (MCP/eCS) handle this correctly,
so the patch is no longer needed. The document is correct for Warp4.

You got my meaning. I meant anywhere in the circuit controlling current
to the LED. If it's on, there's got to be current flow (we hope).

Then is it possible you've got some kind of constant logging going on
somewhere? If this persists, we can do a trace to find out if there's any
actual I/O going on.
