The CD/DVD is a SATA ASUS; connected to a ASRock 970A-G/3.1 motherboard.

The changed "driver" has to be in the kernel, if it changed.

Near the end of the boot up process, the CD/DVD tray will open, and
immediately close.

This started with the kernel update 5.4.0-84.94, and now also with
5.4.0-86.97.

Time shifted back to 5.4.0-81, with no CD tray opening problem.
I guess you should at least provide more info such as how your CD drive
is attached to the host (SATA/USB/IDE/SCSI/other?), and maybe compare
the boot logs from the working and broken kernels just in case you'd
find different messages possibly indicating a difference in a driver.
