Georgios Toptsidis f7e7868b47 cdrom: Random writing support for BD-RE media
Recently, i bought a blu-ray writer and noticed that while cdrecord
worked perfectly, random writing didn't work on rewritable bd-re media.
For example, dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sr0 bs=32768 count=2 gave the usual
"read-only file system" message.

After checking if the problem lies with my burner or firmware, i grep-ed
the kernel source for EROFS. One of the results was in the cdrom driver.

I tried to follow the function chain and ended in the cdrom_is_dvd_rw
function where writing is permitted only for DVD-RAM and DVD+RW media.
I added a new case label for 0x43 which is the profile name of BD-RE
and now it works correctly for BD-RE too.

Maybe there is a better way of implementing this, like a new function
checking for blu-ray support and called from cdrom_open_write like
it happens for mrw and dvdram media, but adding the case label worked.

Thank you for your time.
