       data race

When different tasks on two CPUs perform the above operations on the same
lo device, data race may be occur, Do not drop lo->lo_mutex before calling
 __loop_clr_fd(), so refcnt and LO_FLAGS_AUTOCLEAR check in lo_release
stay in sync.
There is a race with autoclear logic where use after free may occur as
shown in the above scenario. Do not drop lo->lo_mutex before calling
__loop_clr_fd(), so refcnt and LO_FLAGS_AUTOCLEAR check in lo_release
stay in sync.
