Any SMP people out there with SCSI CD ROMs?

I've gotten lots of reports that SCSI CD's seem to be broken currently,
and it's almost certainly because the SCSI layer is doing something bad
wrt the io_request_lock under SMP with either ioctl's or just something
else in sr.c...

However, having no devices except a simple disk on my SCSI setup, I don't
have much to look at. Does anybody out there feel comfortable about
spinlocks and have a CD-ROM drive on their SCSI subsystem? I'd appreciate
a hand with this.. (it's probably trivial to fix once you find the
offender)
