Inside dm_poll_bio() we recognize non-NULL ->saved_bio_end_io as
valid, so it has to be initialized it here.

OK, I will add a helper of dm_get_bio_hlist_head() with comment.

Upper layer keeps to poll one bio with POLLED, but the flag can be
cleared by driver or block layer. Once it is cleared, we should return
immediately.
Yeah, we can move it to bio_poll().

hlist_head is 'void *', but ->bi_cookie is 'unsigned int'.
