Good news!

Found the problem why /dev/sr0 does not appear myself: SCSI-CDROM and
SCSI-disk have to be enabled also!

Now...I will test, whether the hickups are still there...

HERE ! You use VIA_IDE which is very old driver from:
Device Drivers > ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support (DEPRECATED)
(Notice the big (DEPRECATED)).

You should use PATA_VIA from
Device Drivers -->
  <*>Serial ATA and Parallel ATA drivers -->
<*> VIA PATA support

and uncheck
Device Drivers --->
  < > ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support (DEPRECATED)

using kernel menuconfig. Then compile and reboot to your newly compiled
kernel and now your dvd drive should be seen as /dev/sr0.

Try to use PATA drivers better than olds ATA/IDE drivers. The drive
should be recognized as sr0 when it's well configured. An lspci -k may
help us.
