I think I see what's wrong, actually. When parport_yield() is called it will
only give up the port if it thinks someone else is waiting, and it only counts
people sleeping in parport_claim_or_block(), not those who called
parport_claim() once and are doing their own retries. That's a bit dumb.

However, I don't have time to fix it at the moment, as I'm about to go out.
I'll try to do something about it tomorrow.
