I think you should add a small delay into this loop. Otherwise
it depends on the speed of the CPU (and chipset) how big the total
timeout (32) of the loop is. Could be too small on fast systems.
Something like:
			if (!(mask & 0x80))
				break;
			udelay(10);
			} while (++count < 32);
and drop the next line.
