[char-misc-next 0/9 RESEND] mei: support for async event notifications

[Tomas Winkler]

FW has gained new capability where a FW client can asynchronously
notify the host that an event has occurred in its process.
The notification doesn't provide any data and host may need to query
further the FW client in order to get details of the event.
New IOCTLs are introduced for the user space to enable/disable
and consume the event notifications.
The asynchronous nature is provided via poll and fasync.
