Thanks for this tip. Though this helps in fixing the hang, this change has
performance impact. Moving event_handled to end of poll_in means, socket
will be added back for polling of new events only _after_ the rpc is msg is
processed by higher layers (like EC) and higher layers can have significant
latency  for processing the msg. Which means, socket will be out of polling
for longer periods of time which decreases the throughput (number of msgs
read per second) affecting performance. However, this experiment definitely
indicates there is a codepath where event_handled is not called (and hence
causing the hang). I'll go through this codepath again.

Thanks for that experiment :).
