It was always done before starting the transaction, so do it
in common code before the transaction start.

The calls looks identical (it gets called before each transaction), but
given that this is a status register, I wonder if this should not be
checked once the setup has been done, and not at the very early
beginning.

What I did is not a functional change from what was before, but I
think you may be right, it might be best to move this check this
before the switch statement above. I'm not sure, though.

Jean, do you have any thoughts on this?
