Subject: [RFC PATCH 6/7] samples/damon/prcl: use damon_initialized()

damon_sample_prcl is assuming DAMON is ready to use in module_init time,
and uses its own hack to see if it is the time.  Use
damon_initialized(), which is a way for seeing if DAMON is ready to be
used that is more reliable and better to maintain instead of the hack.
