loop: don't hold lo_mutex during __loop_clr_fd()
syzbot is reporting circular locking problem at __loop_clr_fd() [1], for
commit 87579e9b7d8dc36e ("loop: use worker per cgroup instead of kworker")
is calling destroy_workqueue() with lo->lo_mutex held.
Since all functions where lo->lo_state matters are already checking
lo->lo_state with lo->lo_mutex held (in order to avoid racing with e.g.
ioctl(LOOP_CTL_REMOVE)), and __loop_clr_fd() can be called from either
ioctl(LOOP_CLR_FD) xor close(), lo->lo_state == Lo_rundown is considered
as an exclusive lock for __loop_clr_fd(). Therefore, hold lo->lo_mutex
inside __loop_clr_fd() only when asserting/updating lo->lo_state.
Since ioctl(LOOP_CLR_FD) depends on lo->lo_state == Lo_bound, a valid
lo->lo_backing_file must have been assigned by ioctl(LOOP_SET_FD) or
ioctl(LOOP_CONFIGURE). Thus, we can remove lo->lo_backing_file test,
and convert __loop_clr_fd() into a void function.
