rcu/exp: Handle RCU expedited grace period kworker allocation failure

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.
