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@...hat.com>

when moving them over.
