md/bitmap currently has a separate thread to wait for writes
to the bitmap file to complete (as we cannot get a callback
on that action).
However this isn't needed as bitmap_unplug is called from
process context and waits for the writeback thread to do it's
work. The same result can be achieved by doing the waiting
directly in bitmap_unplug.
