Several of the in-tree regression tests depend on the availability of loop devices. If for some reason no loop devices are available the tests will fail. Normally this isn't an issue because most Linux distributions create 8 loop devices by default. This is enough for our purposes. However, recent Fedora releases have only been creating a single loop device and this leads to failures. Alternately, if something else of the system is using the loop devices we may see failures. The fix for this is to update the support scripts to dynamically create loop devices as needed. The scripts need only create a node under /dev/ and the loop driver with create the minor. This behavior has been supported by the loop driver for ages. Additionally this patch updates cleanup_loop_devices() to cleanup loop devices which have already had their file store deleted. This helps prevent stale loop devices from accumulating on the system due to test failures.
