Keith Busch 54bdd67d0f blk-mq: remove hybrid polling
io_uring provides the only way user space can poll completions, and that
always sets BLK_POLL_NOSLEEP. This effectively makes hybrid polling dead
code, so remove it and everything supporting it.

Hybrid polling was effectively killed off with 9650b453a3, "block:
ignore RWF_HIPRI hint for sync dio", but still potentially reachable
through io_uring until d729cf9acb, "io_uring: don't sleep when
polling for I/O", but hybrid polling probably should not have been
reachable through that async interface from the beginning.

Fixes: 9650b453a3 ("block: ignore RWF_HIPRI hint for sync dio")
Fixes: d729cf9acb ("io_uring: don't sleep when polling for I/O")
