perf: Fix AUX buffer refcounting

commit 57ffc5ca 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.
