This patch breaks blk_cleanup_disk() into blk_cleanup_queue() and put_disk() on loop_remove() side only. But there is blk_cleanup_disk() in the error path of loop_add() side. Don't we need to rewrite the error path of loop_add() side, for put_disk() from blk_cleanup_disk() from loop_add() calls kfree() via lo_free_disk() but out_cleanup_disk: label falls through to blk_mq_free_tag_set() (which seems to be UAF read) and kfree() (which seems to be double kfree()) ?
