Actually I'm not sure why REQ_POLLED should be cleared here.

Besides, there's one corner case where bio is submitted when dm device
is suspended.

```
static blk_qc_t dm_submit_bio(struct bio *bio)

	/* If suspended, queue this IO for later */
	if (unlikely(test_bit(DMF_BLOCK_IO_FOR_SUSPEND, &md->flags))) {
		if (bio->bi_opf & REQ_NOWAIT)
			bio_wouldblock_error(bio);
		else if (bio->bi_opf & REQ_RAHEAD)
			bio_io_error(bio);
		else
			queue_io(md, bio);
		goto out;
	}
```

When the dm device is suspended with DMF_BLOCK_IO_FOR_SUSPEND, the
submitted bio is inserted into @md->deferred list by calling queue_io().
Then the following bio_poll() calling will trigger the
'WARN_ON_ONCE(!saved_bi_end_io)' in dm_poll_bio(), if the previously
submitted bio is still buffered in @md->deferred list.

```
submit_bio()
  dm_submit_bio
    queue_io

bio_poll
  dm_poll_bio
```

Wondering if '!io->submit_as_polled' is necessary here. dm_io will be
added into the hash list only when 'io->submit_as_polled' is true in
__split_and_process_bio.

Seems that checking if saved_bi_end_io NULL here is not necessary, since
you will exit thte loop once saved_bi_end_io is assigned.

Abnormal bio flagged with REQ_POLLED (is this possible?) can still be
called with dm_poll_bio(), and will trigger this warning.
