It seems like this is a win win patch for the cdrom that was heavily
tested in 2.4 in the akpm tree. I'm just wondering why it was never
incorporated into 2.5 and thus 2.6? It's a shame to not have it in the
kernel by default.

>From my perspective, it would be fine to include in 2.6 right now. The
2.4 patch relied heavily on buffer_heads though, so you would have to
adapt the patch to bio first. Actually, it should be doable in a much
less hackish manner.
