Let's #define these bits, for clarity?

Well, it is an ugly hack... Does it work after suspend to RAM and
suspend to disk?
What happens if you replace that part of the code with
tp_controller_read(0x13,0x01,buf), verify that it returns 0 and that
buf[0xf] is 0, and set status=3Dbuf[1]? That's logically equivalent, but
has some error checking and retries along the way.
