Since the reproducer is doing open(O_RDWR) before switching loop devices
using ioctl(LOOP_SET_FD/LOOP_CLR_FD), I think that that commit converted
a run many times, multi threaded program into a run once, single threaded
program. That will likely hide all race bugs.

Does that commit also affect open(3) (i.e. open for ioctl only) case?
If that commit does not affect open(3) case, the reproducer could continue
behaving as run many times, multi threaded program that overwrites
filesystem images using ioctl(LOOP_SET_FD/LOOP_CLR_FD), by replacing
open(O_RDWR) with open(3) ?
