Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Two fixes for loop devices

Hi Jens,
 one of these is a resend of a patch I sent a while back.
 The other is new - loop closes files differently from close()
 and in a way that can confuse NFS.

Thanks,
NeilBrown

NeilBrown (2):
      loop: use filp_close() rather than fput()
      loop: Add PF_LESS_THROTTLE to block/loop device thread.
