Subject: [PATCH 4.9 03/32] Revert "loop: Fold __loop_release into loop_release"

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>

This reverts commit 7d839c10b848aa66ca1290a21ee600bd17c2dcb4 which is
commit 967d1dc144b50ad005e5eecdfadfbcfb399ffff6 upstream.

It does not work properly in the 4.9.y tree and causes more problems
than it fixes, so revert it.
