Functions like this are horrid!  You have to always go around and dig up
what "flags" means, and if 1 means this or 0 means that or whatever.

It makes it so you can not read the code that calls this function at all
and know what is going on.

Just make a new function mei_cldev_recv_async() and then call a local,
static function, that does the work with the correct flag set.  That way
the developer always knows exactly what is going on.
