Subject: Bug 7805 strikes again?

Hello!

I was puzzled by strange fact my qemu stopped to boot DVDs I made over years, if I put them in physical drive and try to boot them via qemu.
After  a lot of digging I found possible reason: wrongly-set block device size on /dev/sr0

And this lead me to
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=619757

and
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7805

so I checked if my dmesg had anything related to pktcdvd:

 dmesg | grep pkt
[    7.681270] pktcdvd: pktcdvd0: writer mapped to sr0


blockdev --getsize64 /dev/sr0
1073741312
pktsetup -d /dev/sr0
pktsetup: Error: Can't tear down packet device '/dev/sr0': Inappropriate ioctl for device

 blockdev --getsize64 /dev/sr0
4700372992

after this I can boot my DVD fully (before it was failing at mounting squashfs images):
qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -display sdl,gl=on -cdrom /dev/sr0 -m 1G -soundhw es1370 -usbdevice mouse -smp 3 -cpu max
