    rcu/exp: Handle RCU expedited grace period kworker allocation failure
    
    [ Upstream commit e7539ffc9a770f36bacedcf0fbfb4bf2f244f4a5 ]
    
    Just like is done for the kworker performing nodes initialization,
    gracefully handle the possible allocation failure of the RCU expedited
    grace period main kworker.
    
    While at it perform a rename of the related checking functions to better
    reflect the expedited specifics.
