perf: Fix AUX buffer refcounting commit 57ffc5ca679f499f4704fd9b6a372916f59930ee upstream. Its currently possible to drop the last refcount to the aux buffer from NMI context, which results in the expected fireworks. The refcounting needs a bigger overhaul, but to cure the immediate problem, delay the freeing by using an irq_work.
