By default, /dev/sda is block special file from devtmpfs, getattr will
return file size as zero, causing loop failed for raw block device.
We can add bdev_statx() to return device size, however this may
introduce changes that are not acknowledged by user. Fix this problem by
reverting changes for block special file, file mapping host is set to
bdev inode while opening, and use i_size_read() directly to get device
size.
Fixes: 47b71abd58 ("loop: use vfs_getattr_nosec for accurate file size")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
