Did you check if unbinding drivers or unloading their modules has the
same effect as rebooting? That might help narrowing the area of code to
look at.

Does it also affect loop-mounted ISOs or is it specific to the CD/DVD
drive?
As a related test, does it affect CD/DVD drives connected through a
different interface? (USB storage, ATA over Ethernet, iSCSI, ...)

While at it, please tell us how your CD/DVD drive is connected and which
controller it's connected to (relevant dmesg parts).
