[PATCH 4.18 117/235] mei: ignore not found client in the enumeration

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Sep 24 2018 - 08:35:04 EST


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

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

From: Alexander Usyskin <alexander.usyskin@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 8d2d8935d30cc2acc57a3196dc10dfa8d5cbcdab upstream.

Some of the ME clients are available only for BIOS operation and are
removed during hand off to an OS. However the removal is not instant.
A client may be visible on the client list when the mei driver requests
for enumeration, while the subsequent request for properties will be
answered with client not found error value. The default behavior
for an error is to perform client reset while this error is harmless and
the link reset should be prevented. This issue started to be visible due to
suspend/resume timing changes. Currently reported only on the Haswell
based system.

Fixes:
[33.564957] mei_me 0000:00:16.0: hbm: properties response: wrong status = 1 CLIENT_NOT_FOUND
[33.564978] mei_me 0000:00:16.0: mei_irq_read_handler ret = -71.
[33.565270] mei_me 0000:00:16.0: unexpected reset: dev_state = INIT_CLIENTS fw status = 1E000255 60002306 00000200 00004401 00000000 00000010
