Is this md the same to md in caller function 
ploop_advance_local_after_bat_wb?

If for previous comment the answer is no, should not we take md->md_lock 
here to make the use of md->bat_levels and md->kmpage atomic / 
consistent? In the next patch we introduce md->md_lock to "use it when 
accessing md->levels and md->page at the sime time to protect readers 
against writers".

If the answer is yes, should not we do a lockdep check for md->md_lock?
