I probably wouldn't have bothered to work around it for older kernels,
but anyway it shouldn't hurt to do so.

Generally the patch looks good to me, just some minor comments:

Why not a single if (ret == -1 || !S_ISBLK(st.st_mode))?

Same here.

I think this last hunk is unnecessary. cdrom_is_inserted should only be
called if cdrom_probe_device returned success before, so we have already
tested this.
