After removing ata_piix from the kernel, the panic problem goes away. It seems the regression comes from this commit:
commit a207c1ea485cc9cd7d546eadeb0877515c952f2a Author: Andy Whitcroft <a...@canonical.com> Date: Thu Mar 8 11:32:35 2012 +0000 UBUNTU: SAUCE: ata_piix: defer disks to the Hyper-V drivers by default When we are hosted on a Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor the guest disks are exposed both via the Hyper-V paravirtualised drivers and via an emulated SATA disk drive. In this case we want to use the paravirtualised drivers if we can as they are much more efficient. Note that the Hyper-V paravirtualised drivers only expose the virtual hard disk devices, the CDROM/DVD devices must still be enumerated. Check the disk type when picking up its ID and if it appears to be a disk just report it disconnected.
