loop: make autoclear operation asynchronous
syzbot is reporting circular locking problem at __loop_clr_fd() [1], for commit 87579e9b ("loop: use worker per cgroup instead of kworker") is calling destroy_workqueue() with disk->open_mutex held. This circular dependency cannot be broken unless we call __loop_clr_fd() without holding disk->open_mutex. Therefore, defer __loop_clr_fd() from lo_release() to a WQ context.
