Hmm, loop should be autoloaded.

systemd-udev creates device nodes for all modules with the "devname:" alias:

$ modinfo -F alias loop
devname:loop-control
char-major-10-237
block-major-7-*

so the module loading is triggered on access to /dev/loop-control via losetup.

Which other modules do you have problems with?
