Subject: [char-misc-next 0/9] mei: support for async event notifications

FW has gained new capability where a FW client can asynchronously
notify the host that an event has occurred in its process.
The notification doesn't provide any data and host may need to query
further the FW client in order to get details of the event.
New IOCTLs are introduced for the user space to enable/disable 
and consume the event notifications.
The asynchronous nature is provided via poll and fasync.

Alexander Usyskin (1):
  mei: bus: add and call callback on notify event

Tomas Winkler (8):
  mei: define async notification hbm commands
  mei: implement async notification hbm messages
  mei: enable async event notifications only from hbm version 2.0
  mei: add mei_cl_notify_request command
  mei: add a handler that waits for notification on event
  mei: add async event notification ioctls
  mei: support polling for event notification
  mei: implement fasync for event notification
