Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] Revert "mei: vsc: Call wake_up() in the threaded IRQ handler"

From: Sakari Ailus <sakari.ailus@...ux.intel.com>

This reverts commit 058a38acba15fd8e7b262ec6e17c4204cb15f984.

It's not necessary to avoid a spinlock, a sleeping lock on PREEMPT_RT, in
an interrupt handler as the interrupt handler itself would be called in a
process context if PREEMPT_RT is enabled. So revert the patch.

Cc: stable@...r.kernel.org # for 6.8
