loop: set GENHD_FL_NO_PART_SCAN after blkdev_reread_part() Commit 0da03cab87e6 ("loop: Fix deadlock when calling blkdev_reread_part()") moves blkdev_reread_part() out of the loop_ctl_mutex. However, GENHD_FL_NO_PART_SCAN is set before __blkdev_reread_part(). As a result, __blkdev_reread_part() will fail the check of GENHD_FL_NO_PART_SCAN and will not rescan the loop device to delete all partitions. Below are steps to reproduce the issue: step1 # dd if=/dev/zero of=tmp.raw bs=1M count=100 step2 # losetup -P /dev/loop0 tmp.raw step3 # parted /dev/loop0 mklabel gpt step4 # parted -a none -s /dev/loop0 mkpart primary 64s 1 step5 # losetup -d /dev/loop0 Step5 will not be able to delete /dev/loop0p1 (introduced by step4) and there is below kernel warning message: [ 464.414043] __loop_clr_fd: partition scan of loop0 failed (rc=-22) This patch sets GENHD_FL_NO_PART_SCAN after blkdev_reread_part().
