When systemd-loop@.service is instantiated for a block device (e.g. a CD-ROM drive, which is the primary usecase now that --relax is used), %f resolves to the backing block device rather than to the loopback block device that was attached on top of it. In that case ExecStop= hence invoked --detach on a block device that is not a loopback device at all, which made loop_device_set_autoclear() a silent no-op, leaking the attachment. Hence, if --detach is passed a block device that is not a loopback block device itself, search for the loopback block device backed by it, the same way we already do for regular files. The kernel reports the backing inode for block device nodes too, so the same inode matching logic applies.
