Hi!

There are DVD-ROM drives that don't react to hdparm -E but do react to
SET_STREAMING, for instance some NEC drives.
..

Mmm.. that's possible.  The NEC drive I have here works with either.

I wonder if an update to sr_select_speed() (inside the SCSI code) is needed?
It currently uses GPCMD_SET_SPEED, with no fallback to GPCMD_SET_STREAMING.

Or I suppose this is best left to userspace.
I may change hdparm to try both opcodes.
