mei: fix deadlock on mei reset
This patch fixes 'mei: synchronize irq before initiating a reset' The patch had introduced a deadlock between irq thread and mei_reset() as they are both holding the same device lock. ---> device_lock: mei_reset() <---- interrupt thread device_lock ---> synchornize_irq() wait on interrupt thread == (dead lock) The fix is to call synchronize_irq prior to call locked mei_reset function.
