Tetsuo Handa bf23747ee0 loop: revert "make autoclear operation asynchronous"
The kernel test robot is reporting that xfstest which does

  umount ext2 on xfs
  umount xfs

sequence started failing, for commit 322c4293ec ("loop: make
autoclear operation asynchronous") removed a guarantee that fput() of
backing file is processed before lo_release() from close() returns to
user mode.

And syzbot is reporting that deferring destroy_workqueue() from
__loop_clr_fd() to a WQ context did not help [1]. Revert that commit.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
