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;
