simply no longer released before a blocking operation

It's not wrong, but it's not right either, and everybody seems to agree
that the right fix is probably to do the ccr3 write after the ccr4 one
(and that we also should clean it up a bit). And after that we need to
really validate that all the bits that we write to ccr4 actually do
work.
The old 2.6.19 code was insane, and basically didn't change ccr4 at all
(even though it certainly looks like it was the *intent* to do so). So
let's revert the change that may fix things, just because it's not what
was actually ever tested when the code was written, even if it _was_ the
intent.
There's a discussion on http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/9/63 that was
started by the patch that now gets reverted, and that discussion may
well contain the proper long-term fix.
