BTW Lin and Aaron, note that this did not include these changes:

sr: check support for device busy class events
sr: support zero power ODD
sr: make sure ODD is in resumed state in block ioctl

as in the end I wanted to put the brakes on SCSI-touching patches.
These should be able to go into James' scsi-misc tree with the other
SCSI-area ZPODD changes.

For those three 'sr' changes listed above, you may add

Acked-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

when moving them over.
