cdrom.o is a hardware independent helper module, it gets included if you
use atapi/scsi/etc cdrom drivers. See drivers/cdrom/Makefile.

I know. Sorry for my bad english, I means MODULE's part maybe
deperacated, not uniform cdrom driver itsself.

For example the module_init, module_exit and MODULE_LICENSE, I
remember it could be a standalone module in 2.4 kernels. But now seems
not possible. am I right?
