The trick with return 1 handlers is that they are deleted when there are
no more requests. The pattern is:
...begin processing request...
qemu_set_fd_handler2(fd, ..., have_co_req);
qemu_coroutine_yield()
qemu_set_fd_handler2(fd, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL); /* delete handler */
...finish processing request...
