Jan Kara b8463897a2 loop: Push lo_ctl_mutex down into individual ioctls
commit a13165441d upstream.

Push acquisition of lo_ctl_mutex down into individual ioctl handling
branches. This is a preparatory step for pushing the lock down into
individual ioctl handling functions so that they can release the lock as
they need it. We also factor out some simple ioctl handlers that will
not need any special handling to reduce unnecessary code duplication.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
