CD speed is one of the things controlled by SMAPI. If someone figures
out the interface, we can add it to tp_smapi and see if there's a
still-slower mode that's not accessible through the BIOS setting. The
following SMAPI function codes (i.e., content of BX register when
writing 0x80 to port 0xB2) might be relevant:

#define SMAPI_GET_CDROM_STATUS                  0x8220
#define SMAPI_SET_CDROM_STATUS                  0x8221
