I was not able to reproduce here with au0828. Tried to register/unregister 20
times with:
$ i=1; while :; do echo $i; sudo modprobe au0828 && sleep 2 && sudo rmmod au0828; i=$((i+1)); done
The results are at:
http://pastebin.com/1B9c9nYm
PS.: I had to add the 2 seconds sleep there, as otherwise unregister may
fail, because udev is started every time the devnodes are created. Without
that, sometimes it returns -EBUSY, because udev didn't close the devnode
yet. Still no problem, as a later rmmod works:
$ sudo modprobe au0828 && sudo rmmod au0828
$ sudo modprobe au0828 && sudo rmmod au0828
rmmod: ERROR: Module au0828 is in use
$ sudo rmmod au0828
$
So, I don't think that the issues you're experiencing are related to the
MC next generation.
As a reference, those are the modules I'm using on my test machine
(after removing the remaining media modules):

A clear difference is that this machine uses the i915 graph driver,
instead of the Radeon driver that you're using on your machine.
So, I still think that the problem you've noticed is related to the
radeon driver. Please test without it, booting the machine on
console mode, in order to isolate eventual issues with the graphics
stack.
Regards,
Mauro
