The patch to fix the issue currently is queued in linux-next:

Fix the loopback device to emit a uevent on auto release. The loopback
driver failed to emit the change uevent when auto releasing the device.
Fix lo_release() to pass the bdev to loop_clr_fd() so it can emit the
event.

As the merge window has opened, it should likely get into 3.1 from where
we could pick it. I am no sure Ayan's patch would make it (sure one
could try to send it upstream (after removing the unnecessary whiespace
change)) upstream. From the lo_ioctl side bdev is the known (passed in
argument) while lo is not. Theoretically clear could be called before
set and that may or may not be checked for under all circumstances.
