Subject: Re: [PATCH] sr cd->device->writeable without purpose

Kindly offline I hear:

That might or might not be true.  However,

Ouch, rather silly of me.  In that patch, me the newbie, I foolishly:

a) grew cdrom_device_ops to call back into sr ...
b) just before cdrom_get_configuration returns to cdrom_get_cdc, ...
c) just before cdrom_get_cdc returns to register_cdrom, ...
d) just before register_cdrom returns to sr.sr_probe.

That is, I can run the same sr code at almost precisely the same time if
only I place that code immediately after the call to register_cdrom in
sr.sr_probe.

D'oh.
