What is the problem? Is there infrastructure missing in the
CD-ROM layer?
As the CD/DVD/BD part just accepts SCSI/ATAPI commands (except for plain
read/write), I was suggested to keep it as a SCSI driver.
Ok, so I guess the tradeoff here is that by writing it as a SCSI
driver, you don't need to implement any of the cdrom_device_ops
yourself but instead need to fake a few of the SCSI commands
in ps3rom_request(). Fair enough.
