[PATCH 3.14 038/158] mei: ignore client writing state during cb completion

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

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

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

From: Alexander Usyskin <alexander.usyskin@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 34ec43661fe8f1977dd0f05353302ae2ed10aabb upstream.

Ignore client writing state during cb completion to fix a memory
leak.

When moving cbs to the completion list we should not look at
writing_state as this state can be already overwritten by next
write, the fact that a cb is on the write waiting list means
that it was already written to the HW and we can safely complete it.

Same pays for wait in poll handler, we do not have to check the state
wake is done after completion list processing.
