`comedi_event()` is called from low-level drivers to handle asynchronous command event flags that are stored in `s->async->events` for subdevice `s`. It normally clears the event flags as well. As a safety check, it does nothing if no asynchronous command is running, but it leaves `s->async->events` unchanged in this case. For additional safety, change it to always clear the event flags to avoid leaving stale event flags set when another asynchronous command is set up.
