In a CloseEvent, an UnregisterProtocolNotify is done unconditionally.
There is a penalty associated with searching the protocol database on
every CloseEvent and impacts performance, especially during Network
IO. Unregister needs to be done only if the Event is for a
RegisterProtocolNotify.

So extend the ExFlag in IEVENT to a UINT8 and define new flags that
can be set to indicate if the Event is part of a group, or registered
on a protocol notify. Then in CloseEvent, call UnregisterProtocolNotify
only if the register protocol notify flag is set.
