As discussed in bug 448921, the dk-d change was just enough to not lock the door on mount. However, the door is still locked on open("/dev/sr0"), which is done by DVD/audio CD players, CD recorders/rippers, etc. So the current dk-d fix is far from sufficient.

The only reliable way to make it work that I found is

  # echo 0 > /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/lock

So it seems we need to fix this in our kernel after all?
