Ming Lei 046be7e596 blk-mq: use BLK_POLL_ONESHOT for synchronous poll completion ...

blk_execute_rq() with polling is used in kernel code paths such as
NVMe controller connect. The aggressive spinning in blk_hctx_poll()
can prevent the completion task from getting a chance to run, causing
a lockup.

The spinning with cpu_relax() doesn't yield CPU, so need_resched()
only becomes true on timer tick. This causes unnecessary spinning
while the completion task is already waiting to run.

Before commit f22ecf9c14, the loop would exit early because
task_is_running() was always true. After that commit removed the
check, the loop now spins until need_resched().

Fix this by using BLK_POLL_ONESHOT in blk_rq_poll_completion(). This
causes blk_hctx_poll() to poll once and return immediately, letting
the outer loop's cond_resched() yield CPU so the completion task can
run.

Fixes: f22ecf9c14 ("blk-mq: delete task running check in blk_hctx_poll()")
