mei: me: enable asynchronous probing
On some platforms, currently Broxton, Apollo Lake and Kaby Lake, ME FW may be busy with internal bookkeeping and answering late to the start message. As a mitigation, the driver requests for a synchronous probing to prevent stalling of the overall boot process. For example, on a Apollo Lake platform the overall boot time has reduced from ~0.9 to ~0.6 seconds on average.
