well, first of all when you are applying for permanent residence (I-485) based on a marriage, it doesn't matter whether your visa is expired or not, because since the days immigration received your documents, your immigration status changed on a pending, which means that you are no longer depended on the visa, so don't worry about it. It's a simple logic, how can you be permanent resident and temporary visitor at the same time? It's impossible. They just wanna make sure that you entered US legally, that's all they are asking for.
