I presume the below was a typo and In the second mount it should be
"mount -t ext2 -o loop /mnt/tmp/A /mnt/loopback"
instead of just
"mount -t ext2 -o loop /mnt/tmp /mnt/loopback"
Else wise the directory name "/mnt/tmp" would most certainly be a bad target for a loopback mount.

mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /mnt/tmp extract file A to /mnt/tmp/A mount -t ext2 -o loop /mnt/tmp /mnt/loopback
You'll get "ioctl: LOOP_SET_FD: Invalid argument".
