When A thread is polling on a display fd and B thread is polling on the same
display fd, if a server sends messages, sometimes only one thread(Let's say it
is B thread) awakes and reads all events so fast. Then A thread still is in the
polling status and can't awake. Even if B thread reads and queue all events
into corresponding queue_lists, the events of A thread's queue_list can't be
handled because A thread is still in sleep.
