I'm not sure this error though looks similar is coming from the same source,  this is even after boot up, which  I haven't seen before.
Would it be possible you open more logs through dynamic debug on mei and mei_me modules
To preserve it over reboot I add it into /etc/modprobe.d/mei.conf
options mei dyndbg="+plf"
options mei_me dyndbg="+plf"

Thanks
Tomas
