block: remove old blk_iopoll_enabled variable
This was a debugging measure to toggle enabled/disabled when testing. But for real production setups, it's not safe to toggle this setting without either reloading drivers of quiescing IO first. Neither of which the toggle enforces. Additionally, it makes drivers deal with the conditional state. Remove it completely. It's up to the driver whether iopoll is enabled or not.
