What is particularly strange here is the error about unregistering the /disk/ rather than the cdrom. Do you have two SATA ports on one controller, with the other one being conneced to a disk drive? My best guess is that something in the error handling of drivers/ata/ahci_imx.c causes a reset of the entire bus and that triggers the other bugs. Can you instrument that error handling to see what's going on?
