On arm imx6, running mainline 3.19, mounting a SATA CDROM fails aprox
1/20 times with this error....

root@freescale /tmp$ mount /dev/sr0 test/

mount: mounting /dev/sr0 on test/ failed: Invalid argument

I've tried several disks and dvd drivers.  They all experience this
issue.  The same disks mount 100% of the time on an x86 machine.  Once
mounted, I can read data without issue.  Also tried a HDD on the same
SATA link, no issue.

Sometimes the kernel will dump out the attached backtrace on the mount
command.

I think  you have a combination of two bugs:

a) something that mount() does leads to the 'sd' device being unregistered
b) something goes wrong in the cleanup of that device, which leads to
    the messages you see.

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?

How do I enable ATA error / debug messages?  I've tried adding

debug
ignore_loglevel
log_buf_len=10M

to my bootargs and confirmed they are added by checking /proc/cmdline? (I'm a userspace developer)
