Odd formatting of the text :(

units?

What does the mode change have to do with a timeout?

Why inline?  The compiler is smart enough.

So this will block for how long?  Please document this.

What do you mean "for blocking writes"?

And what do you use here to wait "for forever"?

Again, what is the max, and what do you mean "for blocking writes"?

Why not have mei_cl_write() and mei_cl_write_timeout() like you do for
"send"?

Why this specific value?
