Larry, wouldn't it work to do

mutex_lock();
...
if (!initialized) {
	ssb_bus_powerup();
	ssb_device_enable();
	poll_the_bit;
	ssb_device_disable();
	ssb_bus_may_powerdown();
}
...
mutex_unlock();

That would be a _lot_ less heavyweight (at the order of 300 milliseconds less).
And from a power point of view, the PHY and Radio would stay turned off.

Greetings, Michael.
