Yeah I think you want to hunt this stack smash error down, it's not something you want to ignore.

Thanks for your detailed explanation. So in essence shall I ignore the messages or blacklist lpc_ich?
Yes, either ;)
Besides, while preparing the status report, I sometimes find a "Smashed stack detected in romstage!" message in the console log, just before ramstage is starting. Is there something to worry about there?
Um, yes. I think that's not good. But I wonder why it's not happening consistently.
I commented about that earlier in this thread. Seemed like actual raminit eats a lot of stack, but loading from MRC cache or equivalent does not. One could find that struct and move it to BSS, declared with CAR_GLOBAL. I would rather not extend the boundary for stack-smashing detection.
