event_triggered is fundamentally racy. There are races of 2 types:
1. vq processing can read false value while interrupt
   triggered and set it to true.
   result will be a bit of extra work when disabling cbs, no big deal.

1. vq processing can set false value then interrupt
   immediately sets true value
   since interrupt then triggers a callback which will
   process buffers, this is also not an issue.

However, looks like KCSAN isn't smart enough to figure this out.
Tag the field __data_racy for now.
We should probably look at ways to make this more straight-forwardly
correct.
