[PATCH] Allow disabling drop_caches logging immediately

[Stephen Kitt]

Currently, echoing 4 to drop_caches disables logging for subsequent
operations, not the current operation, even if the write is combined
(echo 7 ...). This patch takes bit 2 into account before logging, so
that logging can be disabled concurrently with other operations.

This doesn't change the behaviour for existing scenarios encountered
in the wild.
