This was recently fixed upstream:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/7ba618e893a4580b04fb883aaed3f00539c3c361
I think the kernels you're testing must have picked up the fix, hence why you're not seeing the message anymore.
As a note, that particular hotkey feature doesn't do anything under Linux. I think you can register the KEY_LINK_PHONE action to do something in user space, but by default it gets ignored.

Just as a note, for Thinkpad/ThinkCenter issues I have a weekly meeting with IGEL engineers. Ping me off mailing list if you need details :)
