Why is this actually a bug?  Linux has never supported filesystem block
sizes smaller than device ones ... we don't have the necessary RMW code
for it.  The sr driver supports 512 byte sectors but *only* if the CD
was burned with them (which isn't always possible depending on CD
burner) and the reader supports them.  I'd need the dmesgs to be sure
but i'd guess READ_CAPACITY on this cd returns 2048 as the block size.
