syzbot is reporting circular locking problem at __loop_clr_fd() [1], for
commit 87579e9b7d ("loop: use worker per cgroup instead of kworker")
is calling destroy_workqueue() with disk->open_mutex held.
This circular dependency cannot be broken unless we call __loop_clr_fd()
without holding disk->open_mutex. Therefore, defer __loop_clr_fd() from
lo_release() to a WQ context.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
