block: end bio with BLK_STS_AGAIN in case of non-mq devs and REQ_NOWAIT

Non-mq devs do not honor REQ_NOWAIT so give a chance to the caller to repeat
request gracefully on -EAGAIN error.

The problem is well reproduced using io_uring:

   mkfs.ext4 /dev/ram0
   mount /dev/ram0 /mnt

   # Preallocate a file
   dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/file bs=1M count=1

   # Start fio with io_uring and get -EIO
   fio --rw=write --ioengine=io_uring --size=1M --direct=1 --name=job --filename=/mnt/file
