After moving the EQ ownership to software effectively destroying it, call synchronize_irq() to ensure that any handler routines running on other CPU cores finish execution. Only then free the EQ buffer. The same thing is done when we destroy a CQ which is one of the sources generating interrupts. In the case of CQ we want to avoid completion handlers on a CQ that was destroyed. In the case we do the same to avoid receiving asynchronous events after the EQ has been destroyed and its buffers freed.
