Subject: drivers/block/loop.c: emit uevent on auto release
From: Phillip Susi <psusi@xxxxxxxxxx>
Fix the loopback device to emit a uevent on auto release. The loopback
driver failed to emit the change uevent when auto releasing the device.
Fix lo_release() to pass the bdev to loop_clr_fd() so it can emit the
event.
