This sentence needs to be rephrased.

My attempt:
"A new capability RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_INDEPENDENT_ENQ is introduced. An 
application may, on an event device where independent enqueue is 
supported, using an event port where it is enabled, enqueue 
RTE_EVENT_OP_FORWARD or RELEASE type events in any order."
