It is fine to add one un-initialized list node via list_add_tail(), just
the list itself has to be initialized well.

REQ_POLLED can be cleared in case of requeue or blk_queue_split(), however
the upper layer still keeps polling. And we need to return simply for
bios which will be completed via IRQ.
