The kernel test robot is reporting that xfstest which does
umount ext2 on xfs
umount xfs
sequence started failing, for commit 322c4293ecc58110 ("loop: make
autoclear operation asynchronous") removed a guarantee that fput() of
backing file is processed before lo_release() from close() returns to
user mode.
As a preparation for retrying with task_work_add() approach, firstly
make a clean revert.
