Hi

Strange...
None of these patches touches init flow where error occurred.
Actually error print is called before patched code came into play.
It is possible that the FW was not ready at the beginning, so some retries are performed.

Thanks

rc-2 compiled and booted on my test system. There is one regression in dmesg with mei:

mei_me 0000:00:16.0: version message writet failed mei_me 0000:00:16.0: version message writet failed

Could this be related to:

Alexander Usyskin <alexander.usyskin@...el.com>
    mei: nfc: fix memory leak in error path

Alexander Usyskin <alexander.usyskin@...el.com>
    mei: reset client state on queued connect request

These two patches are in 3.14 and 3.16 as well and I didn't see this regression on those.
