With this change, the CD/DVD will always be mounted by the active user.
Only the same user will be able to umount it later.

This patch doesn’t ensure you are always able to umount the CD (you
can’t if you switched users in the meantime), but it ensures you are
always the one with the ownership if you are in the active session.
