This patch moves the SCSI cd driver under GEOM.

On sparc64 (or with geom_sunlabel in your kernel) try inserting a
solaris install CD and then:
	true > /dev/cd0	# make GEOM taste media
	ls -l /dev/cd*
You should now be able to see the boot partitions.

It also alows GBDE encryption of CD images.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
