Did not help. Since the 2.2.x kernel breaks too, the loop Zombies must
be symptoms, but not the reason. The funny thing is:

 - it is mounted the first time, works, but on del_loop the ioctl fails
 - disk is umounted though!
 - zombie loop task appears
 - next time when the disk is mounted and the same file is attached to
   loop device, another loop0 process appears
 - when it is done, del_loop fails again, but this time, the disk cannot
   be umounted

Gruss/Regards,
Eduard.
