H A Dloop.c990e7811 Sat Jun 05 09:09:50 CDT 2021 Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> block: loop: fix deadlock between open and remove

Commit c76f48eb5c08 ("block: take bd_mutex around delete_partitions in
del_gendisk") adds disk->part0->bd_mutex in del_gendisk(), this way
causes the following AB/BA deadlock between removing loop and opening
loop:

1) loop_control_ioctl(LOOP_CTL_REMOVE)
-> mutex_lock(&loop_ctl_mutex)
-> del_gendisk
-> mutex_lock(&disk->part0->bd_mutex)

2) blkdev_get_by_dev
-> mutex_lock(&disk->part0->bd_mutex)
-> lo_open
-> mutex_lock(&loop_ctl_mutex)

Add a new Lo_deleting state to remove the need for clearing
->private_data and thus holding loop_ctl_mutex in the ioctl
LOOP_CTL_REMOVE path.

Based on an analysis and earlier patch from
Ming Lei <ming.lei@redhat.com>.
