Seems to be getting a 0 refcount.  I don't see anything in the recent
changes which might cause this, but this is relatively new behaviour. 
It was working for me in the 2.6.21-pre time period, but I haven't tried
this since 2.6.21 was released.

The BUG is actually triggered by the __module_get(THIS_MODULE) in
loop_set_fd.

looks like fc6 already contains that "remove artificial software max_loop limit" patch ?

what about mainline - will it be in 2.6.22, as andrew "estimated" when the patch showed up?

i`m asking, because i`m just curious - seems that this was put "on hold" - so someone confirm we need to wait for 2.6.23 or later?

sorry for the noise
roland
