But the flag _is_ set because the drive is added to the quirk list (line above	^) and
ide_cdrom_setup() calls ide_cd_flags() to set the proper flags for cd->cd_flags and later on
ide_cdrom_probe_capabilities() works on the same cd->cd_flags for testing
IDE_CD_FLAG_PLAY_AUDIO_OK, or have i gone blind completely...?
