Christoph Hellwig 83ee49ab18 loop: suppress uevents while reconfiguring the device
[ Upstream commit 498ef5c777 ]

Currently, udev change event is generated for a loop device before the
device is ready for IO. Due to serialization on lo->lo_mutex in
lo_open() this does not matter because anybody is able to open the
device and do IO only after the configuration is finished. However this
synchronization in lo_open() is going away so make sure userspace
reacting to the change event will see the new device state by generating
the event only when the device is setup.

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.
