commit e7a88e82 upstream. The contract between try_read() and try_write() is that when called each processes as much data as possible. When instructed by osd_client to skip a message, try_read() is violating this contract by returning after receiving and discarding a single message instead of checking for more. try_write() then gets a chance to write out more requests, generating more replies/skips for try_read() to handle, forcing the messenger into a starvation loop.
