If you use libata then you don't need anything from CONFIG_IDE,
including ide-cd and ide-scsi.

Hello, LKML,
I'm wondering if the old ide-cd from the ide subsystem is still
necessary to get a CD/DVD-ROM working or is there a libata driver
available already,
Please CC me since I'm not subscribed.

Check the ATA menu in the kernel config to see if your controller has a
driver. If so, enable it, enable SCSI cdrom support, and disable the old
IDE stuff. If all goes well you should get /dev/sr0 which will be your new
cdrom device.
