> When an event device is stopped, it drains all event queues. These events
> may contain pointers, so to prevent memory leaks eventdev now supports a
> user-provided flush callback that is called during the queue drain process.
> This callback is stored in process memory, so the callback must be
> registered by any process that may call rte_event_dev_stop().
> 
> This commit also clarifies the behavior of rte_event_dev_stop().
