The following patch series implements fixes to the IDE/ATAPI emulation
in qemu which affects access to the CD-ROM device preventing installation
of OpenSolaris guests because of an incorrect implementation of the MMC6
GET_CONFIGURATION command when it was extended to also support a DVD-ROM
profile.

  Patch 1/2 : fixes GET_CONFIGURATION to allow OpenSolaris CD-ROM access
  Patch 2/2 : uses DVD-ROM as model name for INQUIRY and IDENTIFY DEVICE

They had been tested in Gentoo Linux 2007.0 amd64 using an Intel Core 2
6320 host and several different versions of Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD,
DragonFlyBSD, OpenSolaris and Windows 2000 guests and to match exact
responses when compared with real SATA and ATAPI DVD-ROM hardware.

This is a partial RESEND as the original version of patch 2 will conflict
with the recently merged qemu due to changes on the type signedness of some
variables to avoid warnings when building with gcc4.
