char/misc driver fixes for 4.10-rc4

Here are some small char/misc driver fixes for 4.10-rc4 that resolve
some reported issues. The MEI driver issue resolves a lot of problems
that people have been having, as does the mem driver fix. The other
minor fixes resolve other reported issues.

All of these have been in linux-next for a while.
