It's just the name of the git repository. The patch is against 5.12-rc1.

We will check if the underlying queue has QUEUE_FLAG_POLL in __map_bio - 
see this piece of code:

        case DM_MAPIO_REMAPPED:
                /* the bio has been remapped so dispatch it */
                trace_block_bio_remap(clone, bio_dev(io->orig_bio), sector);
                if (clone->bi_opf & REQ_HIPRI &&
                    test_bit(QUEUE_FLAG_POLL, &clone->bi_bdev->bd_disk->queue->queue_flags)) {
                        ci->poll_queue = clone->bi_bdev->bd_disk->queue;
                        ci->poll_cookie = submit_bio_noacct_mq_direct(clone);
                } else {
                        ci->poll_cookie = BLK_QC_T_NONE;
                        submit_bio_noacct(clone);
                }
                break;
