This is clearly a timing problem. The printf calls are equivalent to
a larger delay in both locations. I would suggest upping the delay in
both places.
It seems to me that this could be symptomatic of slow inb/outb for this
particular device, in which case, the probe is not the only place you
will need to up the delays to make it actually work.
