4.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Omar Sandoval <osandov@xxxxxx> commit e02898b423802b1f3a3aaa7f16e896da069ba8f7 upstream. loop_reread_partitions() needs to do I/O, but we just froze the queue, so we end up waiting forever. This can easily be reproduced with losetup -P. Fix it by moving the reread to after we unfreeze the queue.
