Fix a race where irq_work can be queued in bpf_ringbuf_commit()
but the ring buffer is freed before the work executes.
In the syzbot reproducer, a BPF program attached to sched_switch
triggers bpf_ringbuf_commit(), queuing an irq_work. If the ring buffer
is freed before this work executes, the irq_work thread may accesses
freed memory.
Calling `irq_work_sync(&rb->work)` ensures that all pending irq_work
complete before freeing the buffer.
