Well, most of my efforts so far revolved around these kernel arguments,
but none of them makes any difference (except for acpi=off, whithout
which the thinkpad hangs even earlier).

All this doesn't seem to help either, unfortunately :/
One more thing I've noticed: It doesn't matter if the kernel is actually
compiled with realtime preemption enabled. Just patching a vanilla kernel
and then configuring it for "Low-Latency Desktop" will produce a kernel
that does not boot...
