Polled IO is only allowed for conditions where task completion is safe anyway, so we can always complete it inline. This cannot easily be checked with a submission side flag, as the block layer may clear the polled flag and turn it into a regular IO instead. Hence we need to check this at completion time. If REQ_POLLED is still set, then we know that this IO was successfully polled, and is completing in task context.
