mount: create loop devices with LO_FLAGS_AUTOCLEAR flag
The "autolooped" mount (mount [-oloop] IMAGE /DIR/DIR)
always creates AUTOCLEARed loopdevs, so that umounting
drops them (and this does not require any code in the
umount userspace).
This happens since circa linux-2.6.25:
commit 96c5865559cee0f9cbc5173f3c949f6ce3525581
Date: Wed Feb 6 01:36:27 2008 -0800
Subject: Allow auto-destruction of loop devices
IOW: in this case, umount does not have to use -d
to drop the loopdev.
The explicit loop mount (mount /dev/loopN /DIR/DIR)
does not do this. In this case, umount without -d
should not drop loopdev.
Unfortunately, bbox umount currently always implies -d,
this probably needs fixing.
