Hi,

Patch against 2.6-test4.

I'm not sure this is the right fix, since my knowledge on cdrom drivers tends to /dev/zero...but, here we go:

Replace cli/sti on sony_sleep with wait_queue, using a device spinlock to lock 'enable_interrupts' and the queueing stuff.

Which it based from workqueue::flush_workqueue, but I don't know if the same algorithm applies to this block driver.

Could someone with more experience on block drivers review this?

Thanks.

Felipe
