Were these failed tests using the latest security patch series, specifically commit 67f70f70a36b (disk/loopback: Reference tracking for the loopback). Other than that, I don't think anything has changed for loopback devices in a while and I'm not aware of issues for encrypted devices either. The information given is too little to be of any use and I'm skeptical that these are issues. Can you help in getting to the bottom of these issues? A start might be to send a lot more specifics on the what and how of the issues.
