2.4.10 - sequential reading of SCSI CDROM - I/O error

2.4.10 - sequential reading of SCSI CDROM - I/O error

[Eugene Crosser]

Under 2.4.10 (x86 SMP, same behavior if booted as "nosmp noapic")
it is impossible to read ISO image of SCSI CDROM.  First 196 Kb
are read and then there is an "Input/output error".  CD is good,
it can be mounted and all data is accessible; also, image can
be read successfully under 2.4.9.
