I'm interested in this as well.  

When I've tried manually mounting in Android they still fail.  It looks like 
the data coming off is still in a format the software can't take.  Does someone 
have step by step instructions for Android?

You can mount the optical drive manually.

As an end user, I think that having mainline support (not just for the
kernel, but the rest of the stack as well) for something like Kodi (nee
XBMC) would be great.

Ever since the first Android TV sticks came out, I have hoped to use one
of those beasts as a media-center.  But so far I haven't been able to do
that: when using GNU/Linux the video playback sucks for lack of VPU
support, and when using Android I'm faced with the problem that there's
no DVD player software available in Android (there are lots of players
which advertise support for playing DVDs, but they actually don't
support playing from an optical drive).
