case LOOP_CTL_REMOVE:
mutex_lock(&lo->lo_mutex)
atomic_read(&lo->lo_refcnt)==0
__loop_clr_fd(lo, true) mutex_unlock(&lo->lo_mutex)
mutex_lock(&lo->lo_mutex) loop_remove(lo)
mutex_destroy(&lo->lo_mutex)
...... kfree(lo)
UAF

When different tasks on two CPUs perform the above operations on the same
lo device, UAF may occur.
