Subject: [PATCH 1/2] loop: deprecate autoloading callback loop_probe()

The 'probe' callback in __register_blkdev() is only used
under the CONFIG_BLOCK_LEGACY_AUTOLOAD deprecation guard.

The loop_probe() function is only used for that callback,
so guard it too, accordingly.

See commit fbdee71bb5d8 ("block: deprecate autoloading based on dev_t").
