[PATCH] tracing: ring-buffer: sync IRQ works before buffer destruction

If something was written to the buffer just before destruction,
it may be possible (maybe not in a real system, but it did
happen in ARCH=um with time-travel) to destroy the ringbuffer
before the IRQ work ran, leading this KASAN report (or a crash
without KASAN):

The buggy address belongs to the object at 000000006d640800
which belongs to the cache kmalloc-1k of size 1024
The buggy address is located 584 bytes inside of
freed 1024-byte region [000000006d640800, 000000006d640c00)
Add the appropriate irq_work_sync() so the work finishes before
the buffers are destroyed.
Prior to the commit in the Fixes tag below, there was only a
single global IRQ work, so this issue didn't exist.
Fixes: 15693458c4bc ("tracing/ring-buffer: Move poll wake ups into ring buffer code")
