David Woodhouse 3e3183bab0 [PATCH] SCX200_ACB: eliminate spurious timeout errors 
While busy-waiting for completion, check the hardware after scheduling;
don't schedule and then immediately check the _timeout_.  If the yield()
took a long time (as it does on my OLPC prototype board when it's busy),
we'd report a timeout even though the hardware was now ready.

This fixes it, and also switches the yield() for a cond_resched() because
we don't actually want to be _that_ nice about it.  I see nice
tightly-packed SMBus transactions now, rather than waiting for milliseconds
between successive phases.

Actually, we shouldn't be busy-waiting here at all.  We should be using
interrupts.  That's an exercise for another day though.
