From: Petr Vorel <pvorel@xxxxxxx> Commit 716ad0986cbd ("loop: Switch to set_capacity_revalidate_and_notify") causes an occasional drop of loop device uevent, which are no longer triggered in loop_set_size() but in a different part of code. Bug is reproducible with LTP test uevent01 [1]: i=0; while true; do i=$((i+1)); echo "== $i ==" lsmod |grep -q loop && rmmod -f loop ./uevent01 || break done Put back triggering through code called in loop_set_size(). Fix required to add yet another parameter to set_capacity_revalidate_and_notify().
