No idea if there's an ioctl, but you should be able to do this with camcontrol,
e.g. if your drive supports the MMC Set CD Speed command:

camcontrol -n cd -u <n> -c "BB 00 XX XX 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00"

Where <n> is the number of the CD device you want to set the speed of, and XX XX
is the hex of the desired speed in kbps.
