The bug does not happen on encoding (for writing), because it is
already visible after re-decoding (I mean, after desktop.el applies
buffer-file-coding-system, or after the
revert-buffer-with-coding-system call in your example). Once the
buffer has the lone ^M, it's no wonder it ends up in the file after
writing.

I think you're right that the problem is related to decoding a CRLF
when the pair crosses a buffer boundary.
