This patch reverts b01af4579ec41f48e9b9c774e70bd6474ad210db.

The original patch was tested with emulated hardware. Real
hardware chokes.

I'm definitely not applying the revert, because it hurts the largest
user of this driver, which is the virtual hardware.

David Woodhouse's patch is the only reasonable way forward at this
point, so I'd apprecite it if you'd give his patch a review too.

Thank you.
