loop_clr_fd() can be run piggyback with lo_release(), and under this situation, reread partition may always fail because bd_mutex has been held already.
This patch detects the situation by the reference count, and call __blkdev_reread_part() to avoid acquiring the lock again. In the meantime, this patch switches to new kernel APIs of blkdev_reread_part() and __blkdev_reread_part().
