My DVD Drive is CAV drive. Thus at the beginning of burning process,
it'd take a while for the drive to switch  mode (higher speed mode such
as 16X would take the longest.)

I've change ide-cd.c to use a large timeout and it seems to bypass the
bug. The real bug I believe is the unrecovered soft lockup triggered by
the timeout (waiting for the drive to be ready to take the write
commands.)

the current timeout is 10sec, I've made it 6*3*10sec = 3min. Now I can
burn dvd (at 16x) again.
