[PATCH] net/failsafe: fix interrupt handle leak

A intr_handle is being allocated as a hack to get a (proxy) eventfd from
the Linux interrupt implementation.
But this handle is never freed.

Remove this convoluted hack and create an eventfd in Linux case.

Fixes: d61138d4f0e2 ("drivers: remove direct access to interrupt handle")
