When LOOP_CONFIGURE is used with LO_FLAGS_PARTSCAN we need to propagate
this into the GENHD_FL_NO_PART_SCAN. LOOP_SETSTATUS does this,
LOOP_CONFIGURE doesn't so far. Effect is that setting up a loopback
device with partition scanning doesn't actually work when LOOP_CONFIGURE
is issued, though it works fine with LOOP_SETSTATUS.

Let's correct that and propagate the flag in LOOP_SETSTATUS too.

Hi Lennart,

Thanks again for the patch, I tested it and it looks good to me. I'll
also add a test case to LTP for this. Two minor nits on the patch:

Think you meant LOOP_CONFIGURE.

Also, could you add a "Fixes" tag, like:

Fixes: 3448914e8cc5("loop: Add LOOP_CONFIGURE ioctl")

True!

Thanks for the review. I'll fix this up and send a v2. Are you OK with
me adding your Ack to the patch? And also should this geta cc for
stable?

Thanks,

Lennart

Yeah, sure!

LOOP_CONFIGURE was just added in v5.8, and stable is v5.7 now, so I
don't think that's needed.

Thanks,
