Is there a plan to include this brilliant code in mainline Kernel?
It works excellent, tested with 15000 loop devices, it's simply cool.
Thank you for your consideration.

red, rather it should
have the same function like before - to limit the loop driver so if you
use max_loop=10 for example, it should not allow loop.c to create more
than 10 loops.

unlimited amount of
loops. Simply clever :)
This will make it _completely_ backward-compatible, with very small code
change I guess.
Just my two cents.
Thank you for reading so far.

you will include it in kernel.
Or, if not, maybe this patch will start some debate regarding
