rcu/exp: Fix RCU expedited parallel grace period kworker allocation failure recovery

Browse Source 
Under CONFIG_RCU_EXP_KTHREAD=y, the nodes initialization for expedited
grace periods is queued to a kworker. However if the allocation of that
kworker failed, the nodes initialization is performed synchronously by
the caller instead.

Now the check for kworker initialization failure relies on the kworker
pointer to be NULL while its value might actually encapsulate an
allocation failure error.

Make sure to handle this case.
