No, we need to use EPOLLONESHOT to ensure that only one worker thread at
a time can ever be handling private data associated with a given fd.
This constraint allows a deletion thread to coordinate with that worker
thread via a mutex to cleanly and quickly delete the associated private
data (provided that the deletion thread knows whether or not such a
worker thread exists in that state, which the question that
EPOLL_CTL_DISABLE answers).
