Tejun,

There is still something else bad going on in your driver.  I've tried
everything I can think of (timing changes, flushes, and whatnot)
but I still get random timeouts and random results from md5sum
on large files.  Even in the case where I don't get a timeout on a large
iso file, the md5sum is still random.  Strangely enough, though, 
the files may be good on-disk, since totem seems to play the DVD.iso
that I'm testing with without a problem.  I'm using debian with a 2.6.19.2
kernel.

Bob
