Subject: [PATCH 17/20] losetup: Prevent AUTOCLEAR detach race

Kernel needs some time to delete a device after losetup --detach. If
the losetup --find --nooverlay is called just after losetup --delete,
it can sometimes attempt to recycle the device that is just being
released.  To prevent this race, clear the AUTOCLEAR flag of the
device.

[kzak@redhat.com: - rebase to the new version of the code]
