event/sw: implement unlinks in progress function

This commit adds a counter to each port, which counts the
number of unlinks that have been performed. When the scheduler
thread starts its scheduling routine, it "acks" all unlinks that
have been requested, and the application is gauranteed that no
more events will be scheduled to the port from the unlinked queue.
