loop: drop caches if offset or block_size are changed
If we don't drop caches used in old offset or block_size, we can get old data from new offset/block_size, which gives unexpected data to user. For example, Martijn found a loopback bug in the below scenario. 1) LOOP_SET_FD loads first two pages on loop file 2) LOOP_SET_STATUS64 changes the offset on the loop file 3) mount is failed due to the cached pages having wrong superblock Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Cc: linux-block@vger.kernel.org Reported-by: Martijn Coenen <maco@google.com> Reviewed-by: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@acm.org> Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
