So if I dd if=/dev/cdrom, will the kernel stop accessing the device when

Sometimes. And some other times, it will keep on reading, on each block
producing huge timeouts and hangs.
And sometimes, it will read the last block fine (cat /dev/dvdrom), but

Dunno, it might not work reliably for CDs. I don't think SCSI was made

True, SCSI was not made for CDs, but the first

Option 1: make the ISO filesystem several blocks too large by adding
zero-filled blocks at the end.
Right. ISO-9660 says two seconds silence at EOM, and that is equivalent
to a padding of 300 kBytes (75 frames per second of 2048 klbytes each.
