[coreboot] Re: [linux-mei] intelmetool crashed mei_me driver

[Winkler, Tomas]

First time I see it. 
My guess is this tool is for SPS and it will conflict with the mei driver on clients platform (mobile, desktop, workstations)
It messes up the drive state machine, hence the error 
I've removed recently the BUG() from the drivers so I guess on 4.20 it won't crash, but still this cannot work. 
Thanks
Tomas
