I'm just noting that this code does not match function's comment 
(neither pre nor post diff code). The comment claims "mask bits are set" 
but the code tests "any mask bit set". 

However, currently it causes no issue because only MPF_STATUS_READY is 
passed and it's BIT(1).

I think the condition matching to the comment would be this (IMHO, it is 
also slightly simpler because !mask doesn't need to be special cased):

((status & (MPF_STATUS_BUSY | mask)) == mask)

(But not necessarily to be changed in this patch.)
