It is related because there are two copies of the aio handler dispatch
code - one for glib and one for select.  The !node->deleted check is
present in the select version of the loop but not in the glib version.

In the next patch I get rid of select version and reuse the function
extracted from the glib version by this patch.  I wouldn't be confident
in reusing the extracted function without !node->deleted.
