Subject: [PATCH 3.15 05/12] mei: me: fix hw ready reset flow

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

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

From: Tomas Winkler <tomas.winkler@...el.com>

commit b04ada92ffaabb868497a1fce8e4f6bf74e5488f upstream.

We cleared H_RST for H_CSR on spurious interrupt generated when ME_RDY
while cleared and not while  ME_RDY is set. The spurious interrupt
is not delivered on all platforms in this case the
driver may fail to initialize.
