I updated my patch according to your previous comments.
Changes from my previous version:
- split the big patch in 5 patches.
- not exporting any private structure
- switched to SG_IO and brdv_aio_ioctl()
- not including linux/cdrom.h or linux/bsg.h
- got some stuff like defines and request_sense structure from linux/cdrom.h

I expect that running qemu as root counts as a 'bad idea' (I gather
that commands are filtered when running as a regular user), but even so,
I wonder if guests should be prevented from performing firmware updates?
