Subject: losetup: mount endless loop hang
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fc08b4bb9d5997c0d65eec37b5c795ddbbbebd97;p=util-linux

losetup: mount endless loop hang

Based on
       fix-hang-on-stale-nfs.diff
from SUSE src.rpm package.

It seems better to more precisely check for ENXIO rather than assume
that all LOOP_GET_STATUS errors mean that the device is not used.
