Package: mount
Version: 2.20.1-5.5
Severity: normal

Loop mounting has started to fail. Suspect this might be a kernel
change/bug, but reporting against mount since this is where the problem
is manifest.

Example:
========

# losetup -f
/dev/loop0

# export f=1;  mount -v -o loop=/dev/loop0 
debian-testing-source-DVD-${f}old.iso /loopmnt1
mount: enabling autoclear loopdev flag
mount: going to use the loop device /dev/loop0
mount: you didn't specify a filesystem type for /dev/loop0
       I will try type iso9660
mount: block device /large/jigdo_area/debian-testing-source-DVD-1old.iso is 
write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: enabling autoclear loopdev flag
mount: going to use the loop device /dev/loop0
warning: /large/jigdo_area/debian-testing-source-DVD-1old.iso is already 
associated with /dev/loop0
ioctl LOOP_SET_FD failed: Device or resource busy
mount: stolen loop=/dev/loop0

# losetup -f
/dev/loop0

Nothing in dmesg or /var/log/messages.

I see LOOP_SET_FD defined in /usr/include/linux/loop.h
