Bug#529864: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686-bigmem: CDROM_GET_CAPABILITY ioctl on a xen block device does not return success for cdrom type devices

[ijc@hellion.org.uk]

Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686-bigmem
Version: 2.6.26-9
Severity: normal

The xen block front device driver does not implement the CDROM_GET_CAPABILITY
ioctl for virtual cd-rom devices. This prevents udev from correctly identifying
such devices and creating a suitable /dev/cdrom symbolic link.

Upstream changeset 440a01a7f46742400c74d9d346118523e81d188b (plus
62aa0054da220b8bbe6f23c0eb1d97a99005d0b3 for a small cleanup) implement this
ioctl.
