[PATCH 4.10 064/111] mei: dont wait for os version message reply

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Mar 28 2017 - 09:23:37 EST


4.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alexander Usyskin <alexander.usyskin@xxxxxxxxx>

commit c6240cacdb2c3cb56a21fb3ea0c105154ab87a2a upstream.

The driver still struggles with firmwares that do not replay to the OS
version request. It is safe not waiting for the replay. First, the driver
doesn't do anything with the replay second the connection is closed
immediately, hence the packet will be just safely discarded in case it
is received and last the driver won't get stuck if the firmware won't
reply.
