Subject: [PATCH 6/6] kvfree_rcu: use kfree_rcu_monitor() instead of open-coded variant

To queue a new batch we have a kfree_rcu_monitor() function that
checks KRC_MONITOR_TODO bit and invokes kfree_rcu_drain_unlock()
to start a new batch after a GP. Get rid of open-coded case by
switching it to the separate function.
