There's no subfs in a latest 2.6 kernel.  I looked up what subfs is,
and it's a stackable filesystem that is mounted to a mount pointed at
boot time, and then mounts an underlying filesystem on access + a daemon
that umounts it once it's unused again.  I don't see that it uses any
special care to unlock the door of a mounted cdrom, it just keeps it's
usage time down.  If you are really keen on this behaviour you could
write a similar filesystem for solaris or try to trick autofs into
this scenario.  In general I'd advice against it because it's a really
stupid idea.
