My first observation is that this isn't the correct approach:  Most of
the CD/DVD simply respond with an error or the correct information.  The
odd media changer will actually respond with real LUNs.  Doing a blanket
erase of the REPORT LUN information will cause problems for media
changers.

I think the correct way to fix your problem is to blacklist the
particular CD.  We have a BLIST_NOREPORTLUN for devices which behave
like this ... what are the INQUIRY strings?
