Hang on, this is a bug I think. This is done asynchronously.  So this
means that I can assign MAX number of irqfds, then close one, and now
assign will fail because deassign did not get freed.

Maybe we can solve this by flushing wq before assign?
Looks a bit fragile but may be enough - need to document well.
