Yesterday I took a dive into unlocking, rooting, and installing CM7 for the Atrix 4G. All was successful after several attempts, but i kinda like Moto's overlay much better than CM7, except for Moto's whole BLUR account thing. I then used Android Recovery to restore to my original ROM, phone was still unlocked.
Anyway....
I plugged my Atrix into my Windows XP machine and went to Moto's site, downloaded and ran the Motorola Software Update exe. The software ends up not finding a software update, but asks you if you would like to install the current version again. So i did, and after about 10 minutes, my Atrix is back to Moto stock Gingerbread and no "unlock" during boot. I have restarted the phone several times to make sure it was not a fluke. I downloaded a terminal from the market and type "su" and received "permission denied".
The reason i tried this is because all the websites that i have searched have came back with a "you cannot remove the unlock during bootup". If some of you decide to try this, please post your results.
