    ploop: fix race on map->levels[] update
    
    Doing fast-path, ploop needs to know iblock and corresponding
    delta for io. iblock is stored in page_address(m->page))[idx]
    while delta lookup will use m->levels[idx]. Hence both reads and
    writes must access these bits atomically. Otherwise, a reader
    might use older page[idx] and newer levels[idx] or vice-versa.
    Both would be mistake.
    
    Fast-path is already acquires plo->lock, so the patch adds
    lock/unlock only to writer: map_wb_complete.
    
    Thanks to Evgenii Shatokhin for discovery and analysis:

    The first thread, "ploop55307", was executing map_wb_complete() function, drivers/block/ploop/map.c:1152, inlined into ploop_index_wb_complete():
    1258    if (m->levels) {
    1259        m->levels[idx] = top_delta->level;    // data are written here
    
    The second thread, "gcc", was executing ploop_fastmap() function, drivers/block/ploop/map.c:239:
    238    if (m->levels)
    239        return m->levels[idx];    // data are read here
    
    Race on m->levels[idx], I suppose.
